Replication of the Factor Structure of the Comrey Personality Scales

Abstract

The factor structure of the Comrey Personality Scales was replicated using a sample of suburban Denver residents (N = 377). Correlations are reported between the Comrey scales and age, socioeconomic status, sex, body type, a short locus of control scale, the Raven Progressive Matrices Test, and the Neuroticism and Extraversion scales from the Eysenck Personality Questionnaire. Correlations with self-reported leisure time activities and nervous habits provide a partial validation of the Comrey Activity, Stability, and Extraversion scales.
