Responses to the adult manifest anxiety scale - elderly version (AMAS0E) of 458 older individuals, ranging in age from 6 - to 100 years with 5 to 16 years of education, were submitted to an exploratory factor analysis. Using the method of principal axis factoring with promax rotation, a four - factor solution - three anxiety factors and one line scale factor was produced. The emergence of a three - factor structure of anxiety (worry / stress, fear of aging, and pscyhological) is consistent with current multi dimensional theories of anxiety and lends support to the construct validity of the AMAS - E. Internal consistency data are reported, and implications for interpretation are discussed.
