The present study focuses on the hidden need-aggression in the unconscious mind of the individuals. It was hypothesized that the diabetics have higher need-aggression than non-diabetics. The study was conducted on 200 subjects between age range of 40-60 years. The subjects were divided into two groups. Group I included 100 type II diabetics and Group II included 100 non-diabetics. Need-aggression of subjects of both the groups was measured with the help of TAT developed by Murray and Morgan. The obtained mean score for need-aggression is 3.12 and .93 for diabetics and for non-diabetics respectively. The obtained t value of 2.31 with 198 df was significant at .05 level. The result of the present study showed that subjects having diabetics reflected higher need-aggression in their stories in comparison to non-diabetics. The presence of high need aggression in the mind disturbs the functions of their autonomic nervous system which in turn disturbs the functions of pancreas resulting in lower secretion of insulin.Keywords
