Construction and Standardization of Organizational Psycho-Pathologic Diagnostic Test

The main purpose of this research was to construct and standardize an organizational psycho-pathologic diagnostic test among industrial-productive and administrative-serving Organizations in Isfahan city. For this purpose the first organizational psycho-pathologic iagnostic questionnaire was prepared with 148 questions on the basis of preliminary administration on 160 workers ( 80 from industrial-productive and 80 from administrative-serving Organizations) and theoretical constructions. Then, 1615 operant workers were randomly selected ( 730 from industrial-productive and 885 from administrative-serving Organizations) and the questionnaire was administered to them. Finally, 56 items were selected for organizational psycho-pathologic diagnostic test on the basis of two criteria including positive correlation with a total score of test and positive factorial load on only one factor. The construct validity of the test was investigated with an exploratory factor analysis and Varimax method of rotation. Six factors were found: dramatic (with 10 questions), depressed (with 16 questions), psychotic (with 11 questions), paranoid (with 7 questions), anxious (with 7 questions), obsessive-compulsive (with 8 questions), organizations. These six factors accounted for 66.683 percent of the total scales variance. Eigen value of this factors were 2.84,2.95,2.01, 1.57,1.32 and 1.07 . Internal consistency and test-retest reliability showed that the alpha for six sub-scales was. 91,.92,.90, .90,.90 and 91 respectively. The split-half coefficients also were.93,.91,.92,.79,.88, and 91respectively. The result of test-retest showed that timing reliability coefficients of the scale and sub-scales were.75,.58,.58,.73,.50, and 72 and the total was significant (P< .05 ) the total test- retest coefficients also were 62 in addition to evidences related to the validity and reliability questionnaire, statistical standards, such as mean, standard deviation, percentile ranks (from 5 to 95 percentile ranks) and standard scores (such as Z,T and Stanine scores) was also prepared and presented.
