The study sought (1) to determine the higher‐level factors measured by an inventory of interpersonal behaviour, and (2) to compare the structure found with conceptualizations proposed by Carter, Leary, Schutz, Bass and others. The analysis revealed five equivalent modes or factors for two patient samples and four similar modes for a normal sample. The interpersonal modes were hypothesized to represent Control, Nurturance, Sociability v. Detachment, Dependence and Hostility. Of particular interest was the demonstrated separateness of Dependence from Control. The interpersonal modes are compared with prior findings.
