The rule consciousness as one of the primary factors of personality out of sixteen as categorized by Raymond Cattell, 1946 as low and high level.[1] The descriptors of low level rule consciousness are expedient, nonconforming, disregards rules, self-indulgent or having a low super ego strength while the high level consciousness are rule-conscious, dutiful, conscientious, conforming, moralistic, staid, rule bound or having high super ego strength.[1][2]
A theory also associates rule consciousness as the "original apperception", which is a Kantian concept of a mental state in which we perceive special kinds of non-spatial inner objects.[3] Jean Piaget also studied rule consciousness between boys and girls in the context of games.[4]
