心理特权量表在职务犯罪人中的信效度检验

Reliability and Validity of the Chinese Version of the Psychological Entitlement Scale in Duty Criminals

目的:检验心理特权量表(Psychological entitlement scale,PES)中文版在我国职务犯罪人中的信效度。方法:选取来自北京市、湖北省、湖南省、宁夏回族自治区和内蒙古自治区监狱的380名男性职务犯罪人作为研究对象,采用PES对其进行测量。对其中151名职务犯罪人施测自恋人格问卷,考察PES的效标效度。另外招募81名在职公务员作为对照组,对职务犯罪人组和公务员对照组的PES得分进行比较。结果:验证性因素分析结果表明,PES的单因素模型拟合较好。内部一致性信度为0.77。心理特权量表得分与显性自恋总分(r=0.24)及权欲(r=0.19)、优越感(r=0.24)和特权感(r=0.32)维度得分显著正相关。职务犯罪人的心理特权水平显著高于在职公务员。结论:PES中文版在职务犯罪人样本中具有良好的信效度,可作为评估我国职务犯罪人心理特权水平的工具。

Objective:To examine the reliability and validity of the Chinese version of the Psychological entitlement scale(PES) in duty criminals.Methods:A total of 380 male duty criminals were recruited to complete PES.The item analysis and confirmation factor analysis were used to examine PES’s reliability and construction validity.Narcissism personality inventory was administered to 151 of the 380 duty criminals to examine the criterion validity.A total of 81 civil servants were included as a control group.The PES of the control group were compared with that of the duty criminals after matching the ranks.Results:The confirmatory factor analysis provided evidence for a good single-factor construction of PES.The internal consistency reliability was 0.77.The PES score was positively correlated with overt narcissism total score and three dimensions scores,including authority,superiority,and entitlement.The PES score of cadres with and below township was significantly higher than cadres with bureau level and county level.The psychological entitlement level of duty criminals was significantly higher than that of the control group.Conclusion:The Chinese version of PES has acceptable psychometric properties to assess the psychological entitlement in duty criminals.
