Anomaly In Equation For Calculating 16pf Second Order Factor Qiii, Gregory J. Boyle
Anomaly In Equation For Calculating 16pf Second Order Factor Qiii, Gregory J. Boyle
Gregory J. Boyle
Recently, the Institute for Personality and Ability Testing (IPAT) has released a new set of equations for calculating 16PF second-order factors. These revised equations were compared with the earlier ones provided in the l6PF Handbook, as well as with those used in the Clinical Analysis Questionnaire (CAQ) for computing the second-order trait dimensions. It was found that the earlier 16PF Handbook equation for calculating QIII (Tough Poise) was not accurate. It is recommended that only the new equations be employed in future work with the 16PF. Moreover, this finding may have implications for published studies involving the 16PF second-order factors …

The present study used the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory (MMPI) to select, based on multidimensional criteria, 51 college students who displayed depression alone, depression in conjunction with other psychological disturbance (PD), nondepressive PD, or no PD. All students had been living with randomly assigned roommates (RMs) for at least 10 wks. RMs of these students completed the Multiple Affect Adjective Check List, the Profile of Mood States, MMPI-168 Depression scale items, and items concerning roommate behavior. RMs of students depressed in conjunction with other PD were significantly more depressed themselves on 2 measures than were RMs of students in the …
