Findings: high internal consistency of all subscales (Cronbach’s α = .81–.94); a second-order general factor accounting for 64.4% of the variance among the factors; bifactor indices ω_h = .89 and ECV = .58, supporting the hierarchical structure of the competence model (a general capacity interpretable as psychological maturity). On this basis a large-scale validation study is planned (N ≥ 900; exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis of three competing models; measurement-invariance testing by sex and age; preliminary norms), together with the instrument’s inclusion in a psychotherapy-outcome cohort study using internationally recognized measures.
