I'm gathering theories to be tested and questions to be explored. As a Domme do you notice anything psychologically interesting in your slaves? As a slave, do you have any ideas as to the psychology behind your behavior? Are there any intellectuals here?

So your goal is to develop a questionnaire for Dommes and slaves (why only Dommes and not Doms?), saying things like:

How important are the following things in your own (if you're a slave) or your slave's (in you're a D type) psychological makeup?

Factor 1
Factor 2
.
.
.
.
Factor N

And you're asking us to suggest likely factors for the questionnaire? Is that it?

Unless someone has a background in psychology, I don't think you'll get the specifics you're looking for. But, I do think you could put together a questionnaire that asks for specific traits.

Gosh. While I like to feel I am "normal" and feel so, there is a germ inside which acts up and stimulates the body when I explore slavery.
Looking at your profile, I find you adorable.

Having a background in Psychology I believe the work to be put into would be far more than the benefits that come from it. There are so many nuances to each facette - for instance if someone likes humiliation (random example): do they like public humiliation (like online pictures), do they like private humiliation? do they like verbal humiliation, do they like humiliating tasks? What kind of tasks?.
Furhtermore you'd need like 30-50 people to be able making out first tendencies. Those could be compared to self-reported personality-traits, like for instance the Big Five. Yet it would only be a glimpse into what lies underneath.
And given the style many people on here write their messages, it would be difficult to have them fill out a 40 to 80 item survey.

I think that's not what myDominaK is looking for.
I think she's looking for answers, anekdotes, experiences. Maybe even studies. (Though those are hard to conduct due to the difficulties of finding suitable people when being in regular research.)
So, what may it be? :-)
Do you look for info like: 35% of sus are potentially interested in feet worship, 80% are repelled when they spot the words "financial", "tribute" or "wallet" (fictious numbers)
Is it info like: when I as a kid, my bigger brother used to tie me to chairs and tables pretending to play, but actually being vicious - today bondage is a huge turn-on for me (there actually are theories for this perception reversal of a "treatment")
Or is it more like: When people apply I want to quickly have guidance what to expect and/or would like to have a screening tool

Either way, I might know a little, as I'm interested and have been sort of in touch with this since 2006 and am always open for discussion. I don't have any English-based studies at hand though.

I think you would be better served to put your questions to Mistresses and submissives in the appropriate fora. And what's with the intellectual thing?
