Abstract

The present study investigated the factor structure and reliability of the revised Conflict Tactics Scales' (CTS2) 10-factor model in a community-based female sample (N = 261). The underlying factor structure of the 10-factor model was tested by the confirmatory multiple group factor analysis, which demonstrated complex factor cross-loadings across the subscales for both perpetration and victimization. This confirmatory factor analysis also identified a lack of exclusive factor loadings between minor and severe distinctions of the eight violence measures. Internal consistency of the subscales was generally acceptable (.68-.85 for perpetration and .68-.84 for victimization), except for the Sexual Coercion subscale; the alpha coefficients of the Sexual Coercion Minor subscale were .18 for perpetration and .37 for victimization. Practical implications related to complex factor cross-loadings and internal consistency were discussed.
