Psychological Testing and Assessment Human Behavior and Motivation Archaeology and Natural History

Abstract

Abstract Davies (1969) has applied the need-Achievement test of individual motivation in assessing the decline of Minoan Civilization. Such use of psychology for interpreting past events is potentially of great interest to anthropologically-oriented archaeologists. This paper, therefore, is a discussion of the theoretical aspects of such a proposition, a commentary on its previous applications, and a report of methodology and negative results for a similar test that I have applied to the prehistoric southwestern U.S. culture of the Hohokam.
