From Naranjo's autobiography: "I spent time at Harvard as a visiting scholar. There I alternated my research days between the Center for Studies of Personality (then under the direction of David McClelland) and Emerson Hall, where I was a participant in Gordon Allport's Social Psychology Seminar and a student of Tillich. At the end of the academic season there, I spent some time with Raymond Cattell at the University of Illinois and became Dr. Cattell's associate at IPAT, the Institute of Personality and Ability Testing.
Later, invited by Frank Barron to participate in the activities of the Center for Personality Assessment Research (an enclave of the Henry Murray culture), I went to Berkeley, fell in love with it and had the chance to soak in the atmosphere of the counterculture.
A fellowship of the Guggenheim Foundation allowed me to return to Berkeley a year later to pursue and expand on my previous research on values. The Institute of Personality Assessment and Research (IPAR) in Berkeley, dedicated to research on personality and creativity, opened its doors to me and welcomed me as a Research Associate, with campus privileges that included use of the impressive IT center and of the magnificent library."
