The factorial validity and reliability of three versions of the Aggression Questionnaire using Confirmatory Factor Analysis and Exploratory Structural Equation Modelling. Personality and individual differences, 90, 12-15. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.paid.2015.10.028

The Aggression Questionnaire (AQ) measures aggression in four domains: Anger, Hostility, Physical Aggression and Verbal Aggression. Moreover, a number of shorter versions of the AQ have emerged. The present study used a large sample of adolescents to...

Measuring time perspective in adolescents : can you get the right answer by asking the wrong questions? (2015)
Journal Article
Perry, J. L., McKay, M. T., Worrell, F. C., Živkovič, U., Mello, Z. R., & Musil, B. (2015). Measuring time perspective in adolescents : can you get the right answer by asking the wrong questions?. Personality and individual differences, 78, 53-57. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.paid.2015.01.015

Time perspective continues to evolve as a psychological construct. The extant literature suggests that higher future orientation and lower present orientation are associated with better developmental outcomes. However, the extant literature also sugg...

Assessing model fit: Caveats and recommendations for confirmatory factor analysis and exploratory structural equation modeling (2015)
Journal Article
Perry, J. L., Nicholls, A. R., Clough, P. J., & Crust, L. (2015). Assessing model fit: Caveats and recommendations for confirmatory factor analysis and exploratory structural equation modeling. Measurement in physical education and exercise science, 19(1), 12-21. https://doi.org/10.1080/1091367x.2014.952370

Confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) is commonly used to assess measurement models in sport and exercise psychology. Frequently used as a yardstick for their adequacy, are specific cutoff values proposed by Hu and Bentler (1999). The purpose of this st...
