Abstract

To determine the higher order factors defined by scales of the Interpersonal Style Inventory (ISI), data from two male samples and from one female sample were separately analyzed. Intercorrelations of 14 of the scales were analyzed by the method of principal axes. The five rotated factors established were highly similar across samples. They were interpreted as Socialized vs. Unsocialized, Interpersonally Involved vs. Withdrawn, Autonomous vs. Conforming, Controlled vs. Spontaneous, and Stable vs. Anxious. The findings are compared to constructs established in the PRF and 16 PF.
