Dimensions of Satisfaction with Mental Health Treatment

Michael Dubinsky

DuPage County Health Department, Wheaton, Illinois

This article reports the development and underlying factor structure of a brief measure of consumer satisfaction. Four factors, accounting for 69.1% of the variance, were extracted. They appeared to measure satisfaction with the quality and outcome of treatment, satisfaction with the intake process, satisfaction with the timing of the termination of treatment, and satisfaction with the costs. Analysis of the content of responses to open-ended questions revealed that most consumer concerns had been addressed in the multiple-choice section of the questionnaire. Differences in client groups in level of satisfaction were found on one factor but not the others, supporting the conclusion that satisfaction should be considered multidimensional.
