A method of pattern analysis is presented for the case of dichotomous items and a quantitative criterion. This “configural scale” has maximum validity in the least squares sense. A technique for computing the configural scale as a polynomial function of the item scores is given. Tests of significance are outlined for such questions as: Is there a linear or non-linear relation between the quantitative criterion and the item scores? Does the addition of certain items to the test increase the validity of the configural scale? Are all the items in the configural scale fully effective?
