Hierarchical Confirmatory Factor Analysis of the Child Behavior Checklist/4-18.

Greenbaum, Paul E.; Dedrick, Robert F.

Psychological Assessment, v10 n2 p149-55 Jun 1998

Hierarchical confirmatory factor analysis was used to evaluate the two-factor second-order structure of the Child Behavior Checklist (T. Achenbach, 1991) in a sample of 577 children with serious emotional disturbance. Results support Achenbach's proposed structure model and indicate that an overall score would be an appropriate measure of global problem behavior. (SLD)
