Abstract

Responses of 115 subjects to Hood's M-scale were subjected to principal axis factor analysis, for the purpose of verifying the factorial structure reported by Hood (1975). A two-factor solution, closely similar to Hood's two-component solution, yields factors interpretable as the Unitary and Interpretative categories of mystical experience. A three-factor solution splits the Interpretative category into Noetic and Religious types of interpretation. In both solutions, the factors are highly intercorrelated.
