Abstract

Abstract We examined the psychometric properties of the 15-item Multidimensional Existential Meaning Scale (MEMS) scores in three different samples of students, adults, and patients with chronic illness. Confirmatory factor analysis and item response theory-based results provided some support for the tripartite model. Additionally, individual subscales (i.e., comprehension, purpose, mattering) were reasonably recovered.

期刊介绍： Measurement and Evaluation in Counseling and Development is an official journal of the Association of Assessment and Research in Counseling (AARC), a member association and division of the American Counseling Association. Articles range in appeal from those that deal with theoretical and other problems of the measurement specialist to those directed to the administrator, the counselor, or the personnel worker--in schools and colleges, public and private agencies, business, industry, and government. All articles clearly describe implications for the counseling field and for practitioners, educators, administrators, researchers, or students in assessment, measurement, and evaluation.
