I am working with a colleague on a scale of interpersonal trust, and his
concern is to use this in organizational psychology.

Several years ago, an earlier version of the scale suggested that there
was only one factor.  Undaunted, I have been trying to use procrustes as
a rotation (SAS) to get a better solution.  What I have now is two
closely related factors (r = .74) which are the old 1-factor.  There are
perhaps two minor factors which are largely indepdent, but for which the
items also load on the main factor.

I think this may be a reasonable solution, but I have no experience with
scoring systems for such a complex mess.  I am inclined to distrust factor-
loading scoring in favor of more unit-based systems, but ... (see above).

Does anyone have any suggestions?

(in advance) Many thanks
