Abstract
We tested the factorial stability of the Reiss Screen for Maladaptive Behavior (Reiss, 1988a, nle Reiss Screen far Maladaptive Behavior test manual). Reasonable fit was demonstrated in a geographically diverse sample of 448 individuals with mild, moderate, severe and profound men tal retardation according to four measures of overall fit: RMSEA, ECVI , NNFI, and NFI. The results confirm Reiss' (1988a) factor solution of this widely used dual diagnosis (mental retardation and mental illnes s) screening instrument. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science Ltd.
