Olmedo, Esteban L.; Martinez, Sergio R. – 1977
A multidimensional model for measuring cultural differences (MCD) based on factor analytic theory and techniques is proposed. The model assumes that a cultural space may be defined by means of a relatively small number of orthogonal dimensions which are linear combinations of a much larger number of cultural variables. Once a suitable,…

Factors included test anxiety, remote school concern, poor self-evaluation and somatic signs of anxiety. Factor analysis demonstrates a stable multidimensional structure for TASC. Results…

Caughren, Harry J., Jr. – 1972
A modified iterative factor analytic method was applied to item responses of 346 male students in four community colleges in order to construct three experimental scales for the measure of motivation. A fourth scale, which appears to be a measure of goal-deficiency, was also developed. The four scales--tentatively identified as Intrinsic…
