page provided numbered spaces for subjects to list 10 
examples of things they owned and 10 examples of things they 
did not own. The instructions for the first section were as 
follows: 
Complete the column on the left first, and then 
do the column on the right. Do not jump back and 
forth between lists. Just list examples however they 
come to mind. It is most important that you do these 
listings in one sitting, without help or discussion.

IL = Does not apply at all 
2 = Applies somewhat 
© = Applies mostly

the eighth item in your list of things you own. 
Please note that it is important that you answer the 
questions by yourself, without help, discussion, or 
kibpitzing from other people. If you have any
