Abstract
A Phobic Response Scale was factored from responses to the Fear Survey Schedule. Subjects were 137 male and 168 female college students. A six factor solution extracted 41.78% of the trace. The factors were as follows: I (Hostile-Dependence), II(Body assult), III (Developmental Fears), IV (Performance and Evaluation), V (Death Evasion), and VI (Nuisance Animals). An analysis of sex differences by item and scale generally supported and extended previous research. Some conceptual ties were made by scale to traditional phobic response styles and diagnostic categories.Keywords
