Using 100 clinical cases, we examined the construct validity of the Mutuality of Autonomy (MOA) Scale (Urist, 1977) using Westen and Rosenthal's (2003) r(contrast - construct validity (CV)) procedure for quantifying a pattern of convergent-discriminant relationships between a target measure and a set of criterion variables. Our 15 criterion variables included the Comprehensive System (CS; Exner, 2003) variables, a CS-based measure of ego strength (Resnick, 1994), and 3 subscales from the Social Cognition and Object Relations Scale (Westen, Lohr, Silk, Kerber, & Goodrich, 1990). We generated the r(contrast - CV) coefficients to test 2 competing hypotheses: that the MOA Scale primarily measures object relations (OR) quality or that it primarily measures psychopathology. Results suggest that the MOA Scale is an equally potent measure of OR and psychopathology regardless of the MOA Scale index used.
我们使用100个临床病例,采用韦斯顿和罗森塔尔(2003年)的r(对比 - 结构效度(CV))程序,来检验自主性相互性(MOA)量表(乌里斯特,1977年)的结构效度,该程序用于量化目标测量与一组标准变量之间的收敛 - 区分关系模式。我们的15个标准变量包括综合系统(CS;埃克斯纳,2003年)变量、基于CS的自我力量测量(雷斯尼克,1994年),以及社会认知与客体关系量表(韦斯顿、洛尔、西尔克、克伯和古德里奇,1990年)的3个分量表。我们生成了r(对比 - CV)系数,以检验两个相互竞争的假设:MOA量表主要测量客体关系(OR)质量,或者它主要测量精神病理学。结果表明,无论使用何种MOA量表指数,MOA量表都是OR和精神病理学的同等有效测量工具。
