This study examined the dimensional structure of Templer's Death Anxiety Scale and Abdel-Khalek's Death Obsession Scale. The responses of 289 Spanish students to the Spanish forms of both scales were evaluated by means of a principal components analysis with varimax rotation. Three significant factors were identified: Death Obsession, Cognitive-Affective, and Death Anxiety. The distribution of the factor loadings for the items of both scales on Factors 1 and 3 supported the discriminant validity of the constructs specific to each of the scales, while Factor 2 showed a common component in both scales characterized by cognitive and affective aspects in relation to the idea of death.
本研究考察了坦普勒死亡焦虑量表和阿卜杜勒 - 哈莱克死亡痴迷量表的维度结构。通过主成分分析和方差最大化旋转，对289名西班牙学生对这两个量表的西班牙语版本的回答进行了评估。识别出了三个显著因素：死亡痴迷、认知 - 情感和死亡焦虑。两个量表项目在因素1和因素3上的因子载荷分布支持了每个量表特定结构的判别效度，而因素2显示了两个量表中的一个共同成分，其特征是与死亡观念相关的认知和情感方面。
