Abstract Factor analysis models have played a central role in formulating conceptual models in personality and personality assessment, as well as in empirical examinations of personality measurement instruments. Yet, the use of item-level data presents special problems for factor analysis, applications. In this article, we review recent developments in factor analysis that are appropriate for the type of item-level data often collected in personality. Included in this review are discussions of how these developments have been addressed in the context of two different (but formally related) statistical models item response theory (IRT: Hambleton, Swaminathan, & Rogers, 1991) and structural, equation modeling (Bollen 1989) for item-level data. We also discuss the relevance of item scaling in the context of these models. Using the restandardization data for the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory-2 Scale (cf. Butcher, Dahlstrom, Graham, Tellegen, & Kaemmer, 1989), we show brief examples of the utility of these approaches to address basic questions about responses to personality scale items regarding: (a) scale, dimensionality and general item properties, (b) the "appropriateness" of the observed responses, and (c) differential item functioning across subsamples. implications for analyses of personality item-level data in the IRT and factor analytic traditions are discussed.

Reviews developments in factor analysis that are appropriate for the type of item-level data often collected in personality. Discusses how these developments have been addressed in the context of 2 different (but formally related) statistical models: item response theory and structural equation modelling. Discusses the relevance of item scaling in the context of these models. Using the restandardization data for the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory, shows brief examples of the utility of these approaches to address basic questions about responses to personality scale items regarding: scale dimensionality and general item properties; the `appropriateness' of observed responses; and differential item functioning across subsamples.
