Abstract
A 20 year old, female subject completed the Eight State Questionnaire (From B) twice daily for a period of 30 days. Primary factoring of the subtests across occassions provided some support for the factorial validity of the 8SQ. However, the subtests appeared highly correlated and yielded higher order factors upon subsequent analysis. Two higher order factors were tentatively labelled as "General Arousal" and "Response to Stress."
