Abstract: The present study was designed to clarify the relationship between selective memory and personality variables especially related to self-concept. The direction of selective memory was measured by the ratio of the amount of recall of the self-consistent verbal stimuli to that of self-inconsistent stimuli in paired associate learning. This ratio was assumed to be a dependent variable in the present study. Independent variables which were related to personality variables were (1) Self-Ideal Discrepancy;(2) Self-Esteem;(3) Time Orientation;(4) MMPI, and so on. These variables were measured respectively for sixty undergraduate students. Obtained data were analyzed by the multiple regression model. The degree of predictability and the contribution of each personality variables to the dependent variable were computed.
