Abstract
The purpose of this commentary is to respond to Levine's (1994) critique of our earlier article (McClanahan & Holmbeck, 1992). We agree with Levine's argument that changes in the subscales of the Separation-Individuation Test of Adolescence (SITA; Levine, Green, & Millon, 1986) should be made based on both theoretical and statistical considerations. On the other hand, we also argue that attention needs to be paid to the content and construct validity of the SITA in future revisions of the measure.
