The factor structure of the Adolescent Multiphasic Personality Inventory (AMPI) in a mental health center psychiatric patient population was examined (N = 70). Principal components factor analysis with Varimax rotation yielded four well defined factors, which accounted for 78% of the total variance. These factors can be conceptualized as neurotic, psychotic, characterological, and validity-defensiveness. Results support the construct validity of the AMPI and are discussed in relation to previous psychometric studies of psychopathology that used other objective personality inventories.
对一家心理健康中心精神科患者群体（N = 70）的青少年多相人格问卷（AMPI）的因子结构进行了检验。采用方差最大化旋转的主成分因子分析得出了四个定义明确的因子，它们占总方差的78%。这些因子可被概念化为神经质、精神病性、性格及效度防御性。结果支持了AMPI的结构效度，并结合先前使用其他客观人格问卷对精神病理学进行的心理测量学研究进行了讨论。
