Examination of Construct Bias in the Narcissistic Personality Questionnaire for Children–Revised Across Culture and Gender
Construct bias was examined among 316 Singapore and U.S. adolescents on the Narcissistic Personality Questionnaire for Children–Revised (NPQC-R). The NPQC-R consists of two (Superiority and Exploitativeness) factors. Results from multigroup confirmatory factor analyses indicated partial strong invariance on the NPQC-R across culture and strong invariance across gender. These results do not provide support for the presence of construct bias in the…
Development and Validation of the Interpersonal School Transition Anxiety Scale for Use among Fourth- to Sixth-Grade Students
The transition from elementary to middle or junior high school is an important milestone, and during this time some students experience anxiety in their peer, teacher, and parent relationships. The present article discusses a pilot study conducted by the authors to develop and validate the Interpersonal School Transition Anxiety Scale (I-STAS), a new measure that assesses anxiety about interpersonal relationships during the school transition peri…
The Development and Validation of a Spanish Language Version of the Test Anxiety Inventory for Children and Adolescents
This study details the development and validation of a Spanish language version of the Test Anxiety Inventory for Children and Adolescents (TAICA) for elementary and secondary students. In this study, the TAICA was adapted and administered to a sample of 197 students, 87 males and 110 females, aged 9 to 19 years, in Grades 4 to 12. Results of an exploratory factor analysis and item content analysis revealed that the factor structure and the items…
Examination of the Psychometric Properties of the Adult Manifest Anxiety Scale-Elderly Version Scores
The psychometric properties of the Adult Manifest Anxiety Scale-Elderly Version (AMAS-E) scores were evaluated in two studies. In Study 1, the temporal stability and construct validity of the AMAS-E test scores were examined in a group of 226 older adults, aged 60 years and older. Results indicated adequate to excellent temporal stability (2-week interval) for the AMAS-E test scores. Evidence supporting the construct validity of the AMAS-E scale …
Factor Structure of Amas-C Scores Across Gender among Students in Collegiate Settings
The factor structure of scores on the Adult Manifest Anxiety Scale-College Version (AMAS-C), a new self-report measure of chronic, manifest anxiety, is examined across gender for a sample of 943 college students (608 women and 335 men). Values for the coefficient of congruence and salient variable similarity index are calculated between each of five matched factors (Physiological Anxiety, Social Concerns/Stress, Test Anxiety, Worry/Oversensitivit…
Test Score Stability and Construct Validity of the Adult Manifest Anxiety Scale-College Version Scores Among College Students
The authors investigated the temporal stability and construct validity of the Adult Manifest Anxiety Scale-College Version (AMAS-C; C. R. Reynolds, B. O. Richmond, & P. A. Lowe. 2003b) scores Results indicated that the AMAS-C scores had adequate to excellent test score stability, and evidence supported the construct validity of the AMAS-C test scores. Implications for counselors are discussed
Psychometric Analyses of the Adult Manifest Anxiety Scale–Adult Version among Young and Middle-Aged Adults
Responses of 871 adults to the Adult Manifest Anxiety Scale–Adult version (AMAS-A) were factor analyzed using the method of principal axis factoring with promax rotation. Factor analysis yielded a four-factor solution: three anxiety factors (Worry/Oversensitivity, Stress, and Physiological Anxiety) and a Lie factor. The AMAS-A’s three factor structure of anxiety is consistent with multidimensional theories of anxiety and lends support to the vali…
Exploratory Analyses of the Latent Structure of Anxiety among Older Adults
Responses to the Adult Manifest Anxiety Scale-Elderly Version (AMAS-E) of 458 older individuals, ranging in age from 60 to 100 years with 5 to 16 years of education, were submitted to an exploratory factor analysis. Using the method of principal axis factoring with promax rotation, a four-factor solution—three anxiety factors and one lie scale factor—was produced. The emergence of a three-factor structure of anxiety (Worry/Stress, Fear of Aging, …
