Abstract
Our study aims were (a) to examine measurement properties of the Pavlovian Temperament Survey (PTS) on the Russian population and (b) to show that the same dimensions—Strength of Excitation, Strength of Inhibition and Mobility of the central nervous system—exist in the Russian culture by comparison of factor patterns obtained on the Russian sample with factor pattern matrices revealed on the German population. The Russian version of the 252 item PTS was administered to a Moscow sample of 290 subjects. The results obtained showed a high level of reliability (internal consistency) of the PTS scales. Confirmatory factor modelling demonstrated satisfactory levels of convergent and discriminant validity of scale facets. Multi-sample analysis of the PTS factor structures in the Russian and German samples revealed their resemblance, which may indicate the cross-cultural similarity of underlying concepts.
