Abstract

The purpose of this study was to develop and evaluate the psychometric properties of the Adult Life Adjustment Inventory Schedule (ALAIS) for use among young adults. The ALAIS is a multivariate assessment device for depression and its theoretical determinants that can be used in clinical and research settings to generate individual clinical profiles of depression, identify treatment target variables, investigate treatment effects, and develop evidence-based and variable-specific intervention protocols. A multicultural college sample of 231 students was used to evaluate the psychometric properties of the ALAIS. Results indicated strong internal consistency, temporal stability, and construct validity of the ALAIS among nonclinical young adults. Clinical applicability and future studies using the ALAIS are discussed.
