Multiphasic Measurement of Child Personality: Construction of Content Scales Using the Personality Inventory for Children

Klinedinst, James K.

Journal of Consulting and Clinical Psychology, 43, 5, 708-715, Oct 75

Intuitive and statistical procedures were combined to construct 10 scales for measuring child personality. Four independent samples were used in the construction: clinic, psychotic, normative and general abnormal. The scales were judged to be internally consistent, potentially applicable to clinical decision making, and require empirical validation. (Author/SJL)
