Abstract
Two matrices of intercorrelations among the scales of the California Psychological Inventory (CPI) were subjected to oblique multiple group factor analysis. In contrast to previous studies, this approach allows a direct test of the factor structure implicit in its standard use. We found this structure to provide a satisfactory representation of the data as long as one realizes that the resulting six factors are correlated and contain one dependency and that Scales Wb and Cm fulfill their postulated roles somewhat more poorly than the remaining scales.
