  • Title: Concurrent validity of the College Adjustment scales using comparison with the MMPI College Maladjustment Scale.
    Author: Campbell MH, Palmieri M, Lasch B.
    Journal: Psychol Rep; 2006 Dec; 99(3):1003-7. PubMed ID: 17305229.
    Abstract:
    The concurrent validity of the College Adjustment Scales was assessed using comparison to the College Maladjustment Scale of the Minnesota Multiphasic Inventory-2. Undergraduate students (N=56, 40 women, M age = 21.3 yr., 87.5% white, non-Hispanic) completed both tests. Analysis indicated scores on 8 of 9 College Adjustment Scales correlated significantly in the predicted direction with those on the College Maladjustment Scale, thereby providing some additional support for convergent validity. While the conclusions are limited significantly by the small sample, this report provides an incremental contribution to the validity of the College Adjustment Scales.
