It is argued that criticisms of the use of indices of factor comparison to establish the identity of factors in personality inventories derived from different countries are mistaken. It is shown that on homologous scales the average indices of factor comparison between 24 countries come out at .98, whereas those of nonhomologous scales come out at .13. These values are almost identical with those obtained when males and females are compared in the same country, as far as factors for personality scales are concerned. It is concluded that it is justifiable to use the scales of the Eysenck Personality Questionnaire for comparisons within and between different countries
