This study investigated the factorial composition of responses to the Life Style Analysis (LSA) in two normal and four clinical groups. (Author)

The factor structures of the College Student Questionnaire were investigated for three large samples of freshmen. The results demonstrated the variety of information contained in these instruments and questioned the choice of some items used in the suggested scales. (Author)

The factor analytic studies that have been done with the Millon Clinical Multiaxial Inventory (MCMI), a 175-item paper-and-pencil test designed to evaluate symptomology in psychiatric patients, have been problematic in that the test's high inter-scale correlation could lead to an artificially robust factor structure. The present investigation…

A factor analysis of the correlation matrix for the subsets of WPPSI was carried out for each of the age groups between 4 and 6 1/2 years. (Editor)

The problem of demonstrating replicability of factor structure across random variables is addressed. Procedures are outlined which combine the use of random subsample replication strategies with the correlations between factor score estimates across replicate pairs to generate a coefficient of replicability and confidence intervals associated with…

This study investigated the relationship between the dimensionality of behaviorally anchored scales during construction and during their use. It was hypothesized that as the agreement among raters in assigning behaviors to dimensions increased, there would be an increase in the stability of the structure of the dimensions and in their independence…

Additive two-factor conjoint measurement is derived from axioms that do not include unrestricted solvability or a condition on interlocked standard sequences. (Author)

An empirical sampling distribution of the statistic average trace (E'E) for various orders of A matrices was developed through a Monte Carlo approach. A method is presented which can be used as a guideline in determining whether factor structures obtained from two data sets are congruent. (Author/DEP)

The construct validity of extraversion-introversion was explored, as measured by the Myers Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) and the Eysenck Personality Inventory. Findings supported the complexity of extraversion-introversion. Two MBTI scales, Extraversion Introversion and Judging Perceiving, were factorially valid measures of impulsivity…

The purpose of the two studies described in this paper is to validate dimensionality of the job involvement construct through empirical testing of existing measures. Cumulative results of these studies suggest that job involvement is a unidimensional construct which can be operationalized in terms of one's psychological identification with work.…

Two confirmatory maximum likelihood factor analytic models of the Personality Research Form-E are presented and discussed for the men's and women's standardization data. Overall, the patterns of correlations within each data matrix are highly similar, but the factor patterns, factor intercorrelations, as well as the error variances, do differ.…

Presents data on the interrater reliability, internal consistency, factor structure, and discriminant validity of the Cognitive Therapy Scale (CTS). Results indicate that the CTS can be used with only moderate interrater reliability but the aggregation can be used to increase reliability. The CTS is highly homogeneous and provides a relatively…

Presents a five-factor, structural model of the Personality Research Form-E for 140 university undergraduates. All factors demonstrated an excellent level of similarity to those previously reported for other forms of the PRF, as well as to the conceptual scheme developed by Jackson (1974). (Author/JAC)
