Abstract

In a recent article in this Journal, Ramanaiah, Franzen, and Schill criticized the factor structure of the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI-Form X) and the psychometric properties of individual state and trait anxiety items. Logical arguments, data from recent exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses of the revised STA1 (Form Y), and information about the construction and validation of the STAI were presented to refute these criticisms.
