Abstract

The Kategoriensystem für Partnerschaftliche Interaktion (KPI), or Interaction Coding System, is an observational coding system used to study behaviors occurring during dyadic interactions. The KPI offers several summary categories (e.g. positive, negative, neutral) to facilitate data analysis, but empirical evidence supporting these rationally derived groupings is lacking. Reported here are the results of a factor analysis of data obtained from 121 spouses or other close relatives of patients with anxiety disorders who participated in dyadic problem-solving interactions with the patients. A three-factor solution accounting for 50% of the variance emerged. The factors were Negativity, Problem-Solving Focus and Emotional Engagement. Confidence in the reliability of the first two factors is bolstered by their similarity to factors detected in prior research on a different coding system, the Marital Interaction Coding System.

摘要

伙伴互动分类系统（KPI），即互动编码系统，是一种用于研究二元互动过程中发生的行为的观察性编码系统。KPI提供了几个总结类别（如积极、消极、中性）以方便数据分析，但缺乏支持这些合理推导分组的实证证据。本文报告了对121名焦虑症患者的配偶或其他近亲的数据进行因子分析的结果，这些人参与了与患者的二元问题解决互动。出现了一个解释50%方差的三因子解决方案。这些因子分别是消极性、解决问题焦点和情感投入。前两个因子与先前在不同编码系统——婚姻互动编码系统的研究中检测到的因子相似，这增强了对它们可靠性的信心。
