Research has been reported which supports the psychometric properties of the Imaginal Processes Inventory. The purpose was to confirm and extend this research as well as investigate the interrelationships between daydreaming and depression, locus of control, and visual imagery. This inventory (7 scales), Beck Depression Inventory, Rotter Locus of Control Scale (I-E), and Gordon's Test of Visual Imagery Control were administered to 100 female undergraduates. A sample of 39 subjects were retested on the scales an average of 6.8 wk. after the first administration. Correlations with Imaginal Processes Inventory and test-retest data were consistent with Giambra's (1977) findings for males and support the reliability and generalizability of the scores. Other results include significant intercorrelations between the various scales of this inventory and the others. Implications for an understanding of the process of depression are discussed.
已有研究报告支持意象过程量表的心理测量特性。目的是证实并扩展这项研究，以及调查白日梦与抑郁、控制点和视觉意象之间的相互关系。对100名本科女生施测了该量表（7个分量表）、贝克抑郁量表、罗特控制点量表（内控-外控）和戈登视觉意象控制测验。39名受试者在首次施测平均6.8周后再次接受这些量表测试。与意象过程量表的相关性及重测数据与詹布拉（1977年）对男性的研究结果一致，并支持分数的可靠性和普遍性。其他结果包括该量表各分量表与其他量表之间存在显著的相互关系。文中讨论了对理解抑郁过程的启示。
