In order to measure mental healthiness, we have developed the Self-Actualization Scale inventory (SEAS) over a few years. The Personal Orientation Inventory (POI) made by Shostrom was reformed to the SEAS which has 60 items and 10 categories. We attempted to apply the SEAS to a healthy population. Subjects consisted of three groups: 46 civilians, 67 civil servants and 42 clerks of private company. Following results were obtained. (1) There was no difference in the mean score in each categories for the three groups. (2) The category of "achievement orientedness" and of "obsessiveness" showed higher score in middle aged group (50-69 y.o) than in manhood group (30-49 y.o) in civil servants. (3) The group of clerks had high score in the category "achievement orientedness" compared with the group of civil servants. (4) The scores in the category "self-acceptance" and in "acceptance of weakness" were relative low level in younger people. (5) There was much variation in individual profiles in the categories. However, if we use the two categories, "achievement orientedness" and "obsessiveness" as parameters, the civillian group can be classified into four subtypes.
