MASC中文版信效度的分析及与西方样本的比较

目的:建立儿童青少年多维度焦虑量表(MASC)中文版,并分析其信、效度。方法:1538名中学生完成了MASC-C量表。结果:MASC-C中文版的Cronbach’s!系数为0.91;重测信度为0.84;各分量表α系数在0.64～0.86之间;条目间平均相关系数在0.17～0.34之间;验证性因子分析的指标:GFI0.96,CFI0.95,NNFI0.94,RMSEA为0.06,四个因子内部标准路径系数为0.44～0.82,因子间标准路径数0.58～0.73。均符合测量学要求。结论:MASC-C中文版具有良好的信、效度。

Reliability and Validity of the Chinese Version of the Multidimensional Anxiety Scale for Chinese

Objective: To develop a Chinese version of the Multidimensional Anxiety Scale for Children(MASC-C) and evaluate its reliability and the validity.Methods: The original version of the Multidimensional Anxiety Scale for Children(MASC) was translated into Chinese and administered to 1,538 Chinese adolescents between the ages of 14 and 19.Results: In comparison to normative samples(English-speaking/ nonclinical),Chinese adolescents reported significantly higher scores on the subscales of social anxiety and separation anxiety.Females reported greater anxiety on all factors and subfactors than males.Participants aged 16 to 19 had significantly higher total scores than participants aged 14 to 15.More specifically,participants aged 16 to 19 reported higher scores on physical symptoms and harm avoidance subscales as well as the subfactors in the subscales.The MASC-C exhibited strong internal consistency(Cronbach's alpha coefficient was 0.91 and the mean inter-item correlation coefficient was 0.20) and moderate stability(intra-class correlation coefficient was 0.84).The confirmatory factor analysis indicated that the four-factor structure of the MASC-C was suitable for a Chinese sample.Conclusion: As the Chinese version of the MASC indicated high levels of reliability and validity,the MASC-C is appropriate for assessment of anxiety in Chinese adolescents.
