N2  - This study is a cross-validation analysis of the five-factor interpretative model of the Suicide Opinion Questionnaire (Domino, Moore, Westlake, & Gibson, 1982) reported by Rogers and DeShon (1992). Results indicated moderate support for the five-factor model. That is, although the factor analysis results generally supported the 5-factor model, a number of items loaded equally well across 2 or more factors. Additionally, internal consistency and test-retest reliabilities ranged from .48 to .85 and from .34 to .92, respectively, indicating weaknesses in some of the subscales. Strategies are suggested for the future psychometric development and refinement of the instrument.
