Confirmatory factor analysis is used to determine whether the structure designed into the Short Imaginal Processes Inventory can be obtained in a sample other than the derivation one. The results indicate that the three hypothesized factors are found in this inventory. Internal consistencies are high and a factor structure comparable to that of the original derivation study is found.
