Table A.19. Correlations among EQ-i 2.0 Subscales

The following table illustrates the correlations among the EQ-i 2.0 subscales in the EQ-i 2.0 normative sample. Correlations range from 0.00 to 1.00, with higher values suggesting the scales share a relevant common psychological characteristic. Shaded cells portray correlations of subscales within their respective composite scales. Moderate correlations were found within the composite scales supporting both the concept that the scales measure a common psychological characteristic, as well as the multidimensional factor structure.
