Attach. to G-8190 Case #16, 416-X% , Age: Nationality: American (former) Sex: Male Prelimina ry Su rvey?: Due to the inadequacy of the submitted material, only summarizing statements can be made. Summa rizing Statements: The writer is a very changeable and unstable person who maniges to appear fairly well controlled and equilibrated on the outside. He possesses a superior intelligence and professional training of sciextific- nature, ona ra.her high level. He has not only absorbed, but actzally assimilated much of the material he has read and studied, and he knows how to utilize it ina purposeful manner. His intellectual as well as hus practical tendencies are pronounced and developed, but except in bis professional work, they do not always supplement each other constructively. _Either he may get too involved with the materialistic aspects of a project without considering its more abstract and theoretical implications. or he may get interested in some intellectual speculations without considering their practical feasibility, thus becoming rather unrealistic in his approach. In his work, he is well able to distinguish the essential irom the unessencial, and he is able to think clearly and logiéally. He can exercise analyzing and synthesizing faculties, and he is quite clever ‘in putting two and two together" from the things he sees and hears. He is alert and learns and understands quickly. He possesses considerable mental agility which enables him toe understand intellectually a variety of problems, situations and people, without having ary personal emot:-:cal relationship to them. He possesses skill in expressing himself vertally as well as in writing. While he is not likely to say more than would 3e absolutely necessary, he has a great facility in presenting the same ‘acts in various fashions, depending on the situations he finds himself in.” He can be very critical and dissecting in his approach. He has mental :zde- pendence, and he can work out the blueprint for a plan ora project. He 34 "has some administrative capabilities, and he is able to manipulate nombers on a more complex and abstract level. He has understanding for mechanical and technical functioning. While he makes efforts at being econom:c2i, he may not always get along with the money and material at his disposal. He evidently takes his specialized work seriously, and he is fairly accurate [oe ed Excledeg fo@ aztomai i dawagrad.ag asd declasel*icatiéa SECRET
- SECRET — ——G28190_ #16416-X  . -2- and conscientious in the execution of his tasks. When occasional inaccuracies occur, he is quite adroit in covering them up. The level of his performance may not always be quite even and uniform, depend- ifig on his emotional fluctuations and moods. However, he is rather ambitious and likes to make a good showing. When he is interested in a job, he can concentrate well on it. He likes unusual and challeng- ing tasks, but he may get bored and distracted when he has to deal with routine assignments. He has a fairly good memory for stuided material, while he inay be somewhat forgetful in everyday life. In emotional respects, the writer does not have one unified personality, “but various personalities which are not properly integrated and connected. His external sophistication covers up a considerable emotional unformed- ness and immaturity, which is bound to come to the surface in closer per- sonal cuntact with him. He can acta variety of roles, some of therm in a@ very convincing manner, ina perfectly detached and rationalized fashion. He is highly ego-centered, and his feelings and emotions are strongly repressed, but they may find expression in rather unadjusted ways. He ig quite dissociated from his environment, and there is hardly any emctional participation in anything he does, He represses a considerable number of inferiority and anxiety feelings which he tries to overcompen- sate by a self-assured and at times even courageous appearance. He is suffering from a number of inner tensions and cenilicta which he tries to push aside and suppress. He is uneasy and restless, and he tr.es to run away from everything and everybody, including himself, He is dissatis- fied and at times even disgruntled, and he tries to find the cause for his unpleasant moods rather in his envirenment, instead of within himself. He is irritable and excitable and quite erratic and unpredictable. In pro- fessional situations, he seems to be able to check himself, but even there he may not always be easy to handle, He may get angry suddenly and give up what he is doing. He can establish only superficial rationalized contacts with others, and he lacks the capacity for establishing emotional personal interrelationships. He is a person without roots and substance who lacks instinctive understanding for social demands. He is intelligent enough to cover up his emotional deficiencies of almost psychopathic character in general, and many people who are dealing with him may not even suspect his underlying disturbance. As a result, they may be quite surprised when they are confronted by some strange and peculiar actions or reactions of his which may defy a rational explanation. There is a lot of aggression within him which he tries to control, but which may find occasional and somewhat distored outlets. He is most secretive about his affairs, and he is not likely to confide in anybody completely. Actually, he is rather

His fundamental problem is that he has not established a firm identification with @ souiid sociological and ideological pattern. He is impressionable and has &@ etrong capacity for identification and he seems to try out a variety of patterns as his frame of reference, the way other people try on new cloths. There may have been considerable instability in his childhood envirorunent which - caused this morally driftiess development. Rationally, he evidently has learned fundamental ethical principles which he tries to follow super- ficialy for appearance sake. In reality, he has an unneually great number .of camouflaging capacities which have practically become second nature tohim, He himself may frequently not realize if he is lying or telling the-truth. This is also part of his emotional disturbance, While he may be involved in undertakings which border on the criminal, his perscnality constellation has more of a pathelogical than a criminal charecter. His tensiveness and complexity absorbs a great amount of his ample psycho- physical resources. However, he has sufficient strength and energy at present (the time when this book was written) to support his general fune- tioning adequately, On the surface, he may convey a controlled and com- posed impression which may deceive over his fundamental imbalance and unreliability. ., a Summary: — The writer has well developed intellectual and practical capabilities which should make him a competent worker in his specialized professional field. At the same time, he is suffering from a basic emotional distur- bance (of paranoid-schizoid character) which is superficially controlled, but which undermines his ethical integrity, prevents a satisfactory social adjustment and possibly intermittently affects his professional performance.
