  • Title: Factor structure of emotional and cognitive behaviors for normals and neurologically impaired patients.
    Author: Kixmiller JS, Briggs JR, Hartlage LC, Dean RS.
    Journal: J Clin Psychol; 1993 Mar; 49(2):233-41. PubMed ID: 8486806.
    Abstract:
    This study examined the factor structure of 68 affective, cognitive, and behavioral symptoms often reported with neurological impairment. The responses of 199 subjects to a behavioral inventory were submitted to an exploratory factor analysis. The results demonstrated that the instrument could be reduced to 16 homogeneous factors, which were able to explain 67% of the instrument's total variability. These factors were entered into a discriminant analysis that examined neurologically impaired patients and normal controls. Eleven of the 16 factors formed a linear composite that discriminated between these two groups with approximately 94% accuracy.
