%X The present paper consists of a factor analytic study of the Crisis Test and a revision of the test based on this analysis. Two factor analyses are presented: the first, the 10 initial subtests; and the second, the 60 individual items. In both analyses the first factor accounts for a large proportion of the variance. This is interpreted as a demonstration of the unitary nature of the crisis syndrome. The revised test, based on the factor analysis of the individual items, consists of 36 items in two subtests: the first, crisis feelings; and the second, social behaviors. Implications for future research and potential clinical application are discussed.<p /><p>Language: en</p>
