Construct Validity for Blacks of the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory.
Brown, Michael T.; Duren, Paula S.
Measurement and Evaluation in Counseling and Development, v21 n1 p25-33 Apr 1988
Employed confirmatory and exploratory factor analytic methods to test the hypothesis that Spielberger's revised four-factor model of anxiety was valid for characterizing the anxiety of Blacks. Administered the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory to 182 Black adults. Confirmed the state-trait assertion, but not the four-factor model of anxiety-present and anxiety-absent state and trait dimensions. (Author/KS)
