The Marke‐Nyman Temperament Scale| EVALUATION OF TRANSFERABILITY USING THE RASCH ITEM ANALYSIS

Authors:

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to test the transferability of the Marke‐Nyman Temperament Scale (MNTS) using the Rasch item analysis. The results showed that the three Sjöbring personality dimensions Validity, Stability, and Solidity measured by the MNTS were without transferability. However, the item analysis demonstrated a subscale for each of the three Sjöbring dimensions having adequate transferability, i.e. the subscales continued to test the same dimension in different groups of patients. These subscales still cover much of the range of the original descriptions by Sjöbring.
