We examined the convergent validity of Cramer's Defense Mechanisms Manual (DMM; Cramer, 1991b) by comparing it to the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (4th ed.; American Psychiatric Association, 1994) Defensive Functioning Scale (DFS). A total of 60 low income urban women from a primary care medical facility responded to four Thematic Apperception Test (TAT; Murray, 1943) cards and an interview of early memories and descriptions of significant others. We scored the TAT narratives with the DMM, and we coded the interview narratives with the DFS. DMM Denial and Projection scales were negatively correlated with the DFS Overall Defensive Functioning scale (r = -.28, p< .01 and r = -.22, p< .10, respectively) and were positively correlated with a DFS pathological composite score (r = .36, p< .01 and r = .32, p< .05, respectively). These findings support the convergent validity of the DMM Denial and Projection scales.
我们通过将其与《精神障碍诊断与统计手册》(第四版;美国精神病学协会,1994 年)防御功能量表(DFS)进行比较,考察了克莱默防御机制手册(DMM;克莱默,1991b)的会聚效度。共有 60 名来自初级保健医疗设施的低收入城市女性对四张主题统觉测验(TAT;默里,1943 年)卡片和早期记忆和重要他人描述的访谈做出了反应。我们用 DMM 对 TAT 叙述进行评分,并用 DFS 对访谈叙述进行编码。DMM 的否认和投射量表与 DFS 的整体防御功能量表呈负相关(r = -.28,p<.01 和 r = -.22,p<.10),与 DFS 的病理性综合评分呈正相关(r =.36,p<.01 和 r = -.32,p<.05)。这些发现支持 DMM 的否认和投射量表的会聚效度。
