Abstract
Factor structure for the Goal Attainment Scale of Stabilization was evaluated using separate samples for exploratory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis. Results indicated a 25-item two-factor solution. The Goal Attainment Scale of Stabilization may be useful in identifying the extent to which adolescents in crisis meet therapeutic goals consistent with client stabilization.
