[Stability of the factor structure in the AMDP-Scale (author's transl)]
Abstract
A factor analytic study of the Psychopathology Scale and the Somatic Symptoms Scale of the AMDP System in reported. The random sample was comprised of 1166 psychiatric inpatients, and the resulting factors are compared with other factor analytic studies based on the AMDP System. The study concluded that the AMDP scales have a stable factorial structure, but more exact comparative methods of factorial structure should be applied in future studies.
