Alexithymia: Reliability and Validity of the Spanish Version of the Toronto Alexithymia Scale
Psychotherapy and Psychosomatics, 2010This study was conducted to explore reliability and validity from the Spanish version of the Toronto Alexithymia Scale (TAS).

Psychometrics of the Schalling-Sifneos and Toronto Alexithymia Scales
Psychotherapy and Psychosomatics, 2010Two measures of alexithymia, the Schalling-Sifneos (SSPS) and the Toronto Scales (TAS) were administered to 178 male and female undergraduate students. For both measures alexithymia appears to decrease with age. Five factors for the TAS were retained accounting for 35% of the variance and for the SSPS a three-factor solution was determined accounting ...
