title: Psychometric characteristics and validity of the Dutch adaptation of the Buss-Durkee Hostility Inventory (the BDHI-D).
abstract: Data are presented on the factorial structure, internal consistency, and validity of the Dutch adaptation of the Buss-Durkee Hostility Inventory (the BDHI-D). Factor analyses of the responses of 463 subjects revealed two scales measuring Overt Aggression and Covert Aggression. The reliability of both subscales is good. Concordance with other self-report measures reveals satisfactory convergent and divergent validity.
