The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between goal setting behavior observed in level of aspiration situations and tendency to resume interrupted tasks. Subjects : The subjects were 32 boys selected from a class of first year in a middle school. Procedure : Subjects were observed in two different situations, A and B. In situation A, each subject was led into an experimental room and instructed to answer 20 questions of mathematics, and he was asked to estimate how fast he expect to finish his task. When he finished his task he was informed his time. And the next trial began. When 14 successive trials were given, the subject was asked to stop and to answer to a personality inventory. Then the experimenter went out of the room and observed through a one-way mirror. In situation B procedures were the same except that the experimenter remained in the room throughout the whole experiment. Results : According to Sears an Rotter, 6 groups of typical behavioral pattern were distinguished in goal setting situations. Subjects who showed unstable or low positive or rigid pattern had no tendency to resume the incomplete tasks. Those who raised their aspiration level stepwise resumed the interrupted tasks. This finding may be explained by our hypothesis ; those who have high motivation but are frustrated by their failure tend to set unrealistic goal and to resume their tasks, because the tension is not released. In the present study relationships between the hight of goal-level setting and certain personality variables were analysed. Subjects were divided into 4groups according to their G. D. score. Positive G. D. score groups were extravert and negative score groups were introvert. (P<.05 by x^2-test) Mean intelligence score of +L group was the highest, and -L group was the second, and -H group was the third. (P<.05 by F test) In neurotic tendency, there were significant differences among 4 groups. (P<.05 by F test) The order of neurotic tendency among groups were the same as in intelligence score.
