Six interpretable and nonorthogonal factors were derived from the Michigan Alcoholism Screening Test which had been administered to 512 individuals arrested and convicted of driving while intoxicated. Three of the six factors contained items which tapped diagnostic areas suggested by the National Council on Alcoholism. All 24 items loaded moderately to highly on the six factors, which were: Diagnostic I and II, Self-identification with Alcoholism, Early Effects of Alcoholism, and Warning Signs I and II
