Wolfe, Vicky V.; And Others

Journal of Consulting and Clinical Psychology, v55 n2 p245-50 Apr 1987

Investigated use of the broad-band construct negative affectivity with children's self-report measures of depression, anxiety, and anger. Conducted a multitrait-multimethod analysis to intercorrelate self-report measures with the Child Behavior Checklist-Teacher Report Form (CBCL-TRF). Significant correlations occurred among the self-report measures of anxiety and depression, and with the Internalizing scale of the CBCL-TRF. (Author/KS)
