Manifest Anxiety, Extraversion, and Neuroticism: A Factor Analytic Solution

Sherrill, David; Salisbury, J. L.

Journal of Counseling Psychology, 18, 1, 19-21, Jan 71

Using the Twenty Item" Manifest Anxiety Scale and the Six Item" Extraversion and Neuroticism scales, item responses from 241 subjects were collected and intercorrelated. The resultant matrix was transformed to a matrix of correlations among the three scales. Manifest anxiety and neuroticism were found to be largely confounded and both were found to be factorially independent of extraversion. (Author)
