AbstractThe role of premilitary factors in the development of combat‐related post‐traumatic stress disorder is unclear. A longitudinal survey of 52 Vietnam veterans, 48 Vietnam Era veterans (who served in the military, but not in Vietnam), and 51 nonveterans from an Oregon cohort suggests that while post‐traumatic stress disorder symptoms are associated with exposure to combat, level of combat is related to premilitary factors such as family SES and high school experience. Respondents from lower‐social‐class backgrounds were more likely to fail in school, and those who failed in school were more likely to enlist in the military and be sent to Vietnam. Those who experienced high levels of combat are more likely to have PTSD symptoms as long as 10 years after the

摘要:

AbstractThis study examined the relationship between bulimia and family variables. Eight hundred twenty female college students completed a personal history questionnaire, the Bulimia Test, and the Eating Disorders Inventory. Twenty‐four subjects who met the DSM‐III‐R criteria for bulimia were compared with 24 subclinical bulimics and 24 symptom‐free subjects on demographic and family variables, including subscales from the Family Environment Scale and the Parental Bonding Instrument. Significant group differences indicated that the families of bulimics differ from other families. However, in contrast to the findings of research done in treatment settings, bulimics in this nonclinical setting did not report more family conflict or less caring from their parents than did symptom‐free

摘要:

AbstractThis study provided normative data with regard to the behavior classification system based on the Missouri Children's Behavior Checklist (MCBC) with a sample of 120 nonreferred children. The factor structure of the MCBC replicated with a high degree of congruence. Application of the MCBC behavior classification system provided information on the frequency of problem patterns and problem‐free patterns by nonreferred children. Variability in MCBC factor scores and behavior patterns was examined as a function of demographic parameters of gender, race, age, and socio‐economic sta

摘要:

AbstractThe revised California Psychological Inventory was studied in samples of 272 delinquent or criminal men vs. 1,088 controls, and 400 delinquent or criminal women vs. 2,266 controls, which gave delinquency base rates of 20% for men and 15% for women. Of the 27 scales evaluated, significant (p⩽ .01) mean differences were found on 25 for men and 26 for women. The best differentiator was So (Socialization), with point‐biserial correlations of .54 for men and .58 for women. The new CPI theoretical model of personality structure also revealed significant differences. Persons in the Gamma and Delta lifestyle categories manifested higher rates of delinquency than did those in the Alpha and Beta. Low levels of ego integration were associated with greater incidence of delinquency in all four lifesty

摘要:

AbstractThis study investigated the reliabilities and conjectured factor structure of the subscales comprised by Lorr and DeJong's (1986) abbreviated form of the Interpersonal Style Inventory (ISI). The results suggest that internal consistency reliabilities of the subscales are presently inadequate for clinical or research purposes. The five‐factor structure described by Lorr (1986) appeared to conform well to the empirical grouping in the data set. Only one scale, Approval Seeking, appeared incorrectly placed according to the a priori description. Another weakness in the a priori structure was that the Rule‐Free subscale had only a minor role in identifying its conjectured factor. These results were based on ISI protocols from 268 adults. Overall's (1974) marker variable factor analysis was implemented to assess the adequacy of the a priori factor struct

摘要:

AbstractThe present study investigated 261 Mexican‐American college students' performance on the Psychological Screening Inventory (PSI), a brief personality instrument designed to detect persons who might benefit from more extensive evaluations in mental health settings. In addition to providing PSI results against which other Hispanic‐American populations can be compared, this study examined the relationship between the acculturation level of the subjects and their PSI performance. Only one of the five PSI subscales (Alienation) correlated significantly with acculturation, which suggests that increases in acculturation are associated with fewer feelings of alienat

摘要:

AbstractThis study investigated the personality disorders of 21 recent‐onset Bipolar Disorder patients using the revised Millon Clinical Multiaxial Inventory (MCMI‐II; Millon, 1987). Personality disorder assessments, conducted after patients' clinical symptoms had settled, indicated that 17 patients received at least one MCMI‐II personality disorder diagnosis with a trend toward multiple diagnoses. Narcissistic, Antisocial, and Histrionic personality disorders were diagnosed most frequently and were the scales most elevated. Schizoid and Compulsive personality disorders were the scales least elevated. Diagnostic concordance between the MCMI‐II and the Structured Interview for DSM‐III Personality (SIDP; Pfohl, Stangl,&Zimmerman, 1983) was poor; the MCMI‐II made more multiple diagnoses. Implications of the discrepanices between these instruments and suggestions for future research ar

摘要:

AbstractThis study examined the temporal stability and internal consistency of the MMPI‐2 in a sample of 128 college students. Mean score comparisons revealed significant differences across a number of scales, but in each case mean differences were slight and viewed as clinically insignificant. Moderate to high stability coefficients were obtained, from .60 to .90 (median of .74). Alpha coefficients ranged from .39 to .91 (median of .62). Analysis of individual difference scores revealed that for each scale approximately 20% of the sample had discrepancy scores that reached or exceeded 10 T‐score points (i.e., one standard deviation). Findings are discussed relative to the reliability of the MMPI‐2 in clinical asses

摘要:

AbstractThe present study investigated the reliability and validity of the ATQ in the Turkish cultural context. It is hoped that with this type of cross‐cultural information, the universality of the proposed cognitive constructs can be advocated more reliably. The subjects were 345 university students; the split‐half reliability of the ATQ was found to ber= .91 and Cronbach's alpha was .93; and item/total correlations ranged between .36 and .69. The Turkish ATQ correlated well with the BDI (r= .75), and it discriminated successfully between the symptomatic and asymptomatic groups. Factor analysis revealed five factors that were similar to those found in American samples. Nevertheless, some differences were noticed in the relative strength of the factors and in the distribution of items into factor clust
