FACTOR ANALYSES OF THE McGILL PAIN QUESTIONNAIRE (MPQ) IN ACUTE AND CHRONIC PAIN PATIENTS.
The McGill Pain Questionnaire (MPQ) aims to measure sensory, affective, and evaluative dimensions of pain. However, the structural dimensionality of the MPQ remains somewhat uncertain. ⋯ The EFA employed a methodologically sound iterative maximum-likelihood procedure, together with direct oblimin oblique simple structure rotation. Perusal of the 3-, 4-, and 5-factor solutions suggested that the MPQ measures two separate sensory dimensions of pain, while affective and evaluative dimensions were not sharply delineated, suggesting that the MPQ structure requires some revision.

ETHICAL LEADERSHIP AND EMPLOYEE VOICE: EMPLOYEE SELF-EFFICACY AND SELF-IMPACT AS MEDIATORS.
Previous studies have used social learning theory to explain the influence of ethical leadership. This study continues the previous research by using social learning theory to explain the mediating effect of self-efficacy on the relationship between ethical leadership and employee voice. ⋯ Ethical leadership, self-efficacy, self-impact, and employee voice were assessed using paired surveys among 59 supervisors and 295 subordinates employed at nine firms in the People's Republic of China. Using HLM and SEM analyses, the results revealed that ethical leadership was positively related to employee voice and that this relationship was partially mediated by both self-efficacy and self-impact.
