大学生情绪表达灵活性问卷的编制及其信效度检验

Development and Psychometric Property of the College Students Flexible Regulation of Emotional Expression(CSFREE) Scale

目的:编制大学生情绪表达灵活性(The College Students Flexible Regulation of Emotional Expression,CSFREE)问卷,并检验其信效度。方法:对30名大学生进行开放式问卷调查,以形成预测问卷;对410名大学生预测问卷的数据进行项目分析和探索性因素分析,对另外409名大学生预测问卷的数据进行验证性因素分析和信效度检验,最终得到正式问卷。结果:大学生情绪表达灵活性正式问卷共24个项目,包括表达宣泄积极情绪、表达宣泄消极情绪、表达抑制积极情绪和表达抑制消极情绪四个维度。问卷的内部一致性系数α为0.88,各维度的内部一致性系数α依次为0.82、0.88、0.89和0.87;问卷的内容效度、结构效度(χ^(2)/df=2.48,RMSEA=0.060,CFI=0.930,TLI=0.922)和效标效度(与抑郁和焦虑两个效标问卷之间存在0.094至0.237的显著负相关)良好。结论:大学生情绪表达灵活性问卷各项指标均达到心理测量学要求,可以有效测量我国大学生的情绪表达灵活性。

Objective: To develop and validate the College Students Flexible Regulation of Emotional Expression(CSFREE) Scale that assesses a college student’s ability to enhance and suppress external emotional expression across multiple hypothetical situations. Methods: First, the open-ended questionnaires were administered(n=30). Second, items analysis and exploratory factors analysis were performed in first sample(n=410). Third, confirmatory factor analysis and reliability and validity analysis were conducted in second sample(n=409). Results: Twenty-four items were selected and four factors were extracted. Specifically, these factors clustered into a four-factor structure divided by regulation type(enhance vs.suppress) and emotional valence(positive vs. negative) or a hierarchical factor structure with identical first-order factors that underlie two overarching factors of enhancement and suppression ability. The internal consistency of CSFREE and its four dimensions ranged from 0.82 to 0.89. Meanwhile, the content validity, construct validity(χ^(2)/df =2.48,RMSEA=0.060,CFI=0.930,TLI=0.922), and criterion-related validity was satisfying. Conclusion: The College Students Flexible Regulation of Emotional Expression(CSFREE) Scale is reliable and valid in measuring the flexible regulation of emotional expression of Chinese college students.
