An Exploratory Factor Analysis of the Trauma Practices Questionnaire

instrument designed to assess mental health provider practice patterns with a specific focus on the use of best practice technology with traumatized populations. Using the responses of 888 mental health professionals, an exploratory factor analysis with an oblique rotation was conducted on a twenty-six-item scale, resulting in a seven-factor solution. Based on the results, implications for instrument revisions are discussed, and specifications for future confirmatory factor analyses are delineated.
