Development of the Missouri Identifying Transference Scale.
1996
Transference is one of the key concepts in psychoanalytic counseling. The Missouri Identifying Transference Scale (MITS) was developed after extrapolation from some of R. R. Greenson's (1967) examples of transference reactions. The unit of analysis consisted of 269 sessions of psychoanalytic counseling. A principal-components chained P-technique factor analysis followed by an oblique rotation revealed 2 factors: (a) Negative Transference Reactions and (b) Positive Transference Reactions. The MITS is an instrument with good internal consistency, and the 2 factors account for a sufficiently high proportion of overall variance. Investigations of both concurrent and predictive validity appear promising.
