多维健康控制源量表(MHLC)的C表是一个18项、通用、特定条件的控制源量表,可以很容易地适用于任何医疗或健康相关的疾病。来自588名患有四种疾病之一的患者的数据-类风湿性关节炎,慢性疼痛,糖尿病或癌症-被用来建立C型的因子结构,并建立由此产生的四个分量表的可靠性和有效性:内在性;机会;医生;和其他(强大的)人。分量表的α可靠性足以用于研究目的。来自关节炎和慢性疼痛受试者的数据表明,C型分量表随时间的推移适度稳定,具有相当大的并发效度和结构效度。还证明了MHLC的C型与B型的一些判别有效性。
Form C of the Multidimensional Health Locus of Control (MHLC) scales is an 18 item, general purpose, condition-specific locus of control scale that could easily be adapted for use with any medical or health-related condition. Data from 588 patients with one of four conditions - rheumatoid arthritis, chronic pain, diabetes, or cancer - were utilized to establish the factor structure of Form C and to establish the reliability and validity of the resultant four subscales: Internality; Chance; Doctors; and Other (powerful) People. The alpha reliabilities of the subscales are adequate for research purposes. Data from the arthritis and chronic pain subjects established that the Form C subscales were moderately stable over time and possessed considerable concurrent and construct validity. Some discriminant validity of Form C with Form B of the MHLC was also demonstrated.
