Giuseppe R. Brera's B-test was used in a group of students from upper secondary school (102 male adolescents and 86 females) in order to carry out a preliminary standardisation in centiles and to assess the pattern of the seven scales of the test: mood, anxiety, interpersonal affectivity, sociability, autonomy of ego, strength of ego and guilt in adolescents. Factorial analysis by multiple correspondence was used in the same group of adolescents, with the exception of a subgroup of 20 14-year-old students from lower secondary school. The latter was carried out to assess the efficacy of the test in identifying groups of adolescents using the standard association of positive or negative methods of presenting the 44 variables and the free replies to the questions: what do you dream about, what do you look at, what do you advise. Standardisation in centiles allowed indicative risk scores for mental health to be defined for each factor, with the exception of the anxiety factor in males which appears to be a relatively widespread phenomenon in adolescent. Fewer adolescent females suffer from problems of depression, anxiety, interpersonal affectivity and sociability, whereas adolescent males present a smaller number of problems related to the autonomy of the ego, the strength of the ego and guilt. In line with previous works, the test identified 26% of adolescent males and 23% of adolescent females suffering from various in terms of the mean scores from the different factors. For the first time to our knowledge, multiple correspondence analysis identified nine groups of adolescents distributed along two factorial axes: 1 = mood, 2 = interpersonal affectivity. Groups 1 and 2 were characterized by being contrary to the other negative methods.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
