The Self‐rating Psychiatric Inventory List (SPIL) is a newly developed patient self‐rating scale. Factor analyses of the intercorrelations among the 88 self‐rating variables of the SPIL revealed nine clinically meaningful dimensions of psychopathology to be measured by the instrument. A factor score profile sheet normed for the psychiatric population is presented.
