Scale for the Assessment of Reality Testing: Reliability, Validity, and Factorial Invariance.

Bell, Morris D.; And Others

Journal of Consulting and Clinical Psychology, v53 n4 p506-11 Aug 1985

Factor analysis of the Bell Reality Testing Inventory items produced three subscales interpreted as dimensions of the reality testing ego function: Reality Distortion, Uncertainty of Perception, Hallucinations and Delusions. Replication factor analysis confirmed the factor structure. Subscales appear sensitive to variations in psychopathology and may further investigations involving reality testing ego functioning.
