Factor Analysis of the General Health Questionnaire
Keyword(s):
We present the factor structure of the General Health Questionnaire-60 as derived from a population of 2115 Army soldiers. An eight-factor principal components analysis provided the most clinically relevant solution and explained 58.0% of the variance. We distinguished two types of depressive symptomatology, suggesting the questionnaire may be useful in differentiating shame-ridden dysphoria from anergic disinterest.
