目的:介绍一种新的社区融合测量方法--社区融合测量(CIM),并对其心理测量学特性进行初步探讨。设计:验证性研究。地点:社区。参与者:92名参与者分为3个小组(脑损伤幸存者,n = 41;重要他人,n = 36;大学生,n = 15)。CIM的分布特征、因素结构、内部一致性信度、内容效度、区分效度、同时效度和结构效度。主成分因子分析证实了1因子结构。解释了44.1%的方差。内部一致性可靠性,使用克朗巴赫的阿尔法,是0.87。内容的有效性得到保证的发展过程中,符合理论模型,并直接使用消费者的语言。CIM区分子样本的能力支持判别有效性。标准效度的支持使用相关性与社区整合问卷。结构效度支持的相关性与人际支持EvaluationList.Conclusion:CIM提供了一个简短的,易于管理的措施,符合一个经验得出的理论模型,是psychometrically健全的社区整合。
Objective: To present a new measure of community integration, the Community Integration Measure (CIM), and to offer preliminary information about its psychometric properties.Design: Validation study.Setting: Community.Participants: Ninety-two participants placed in 3 subgroups (brain injury survivors, n = 41; significant others, n = 36; college students, n = 15).Main Outcome Measures: The distributional properties, factor structure, internal consistency reliability, content validity, discriminant validity, concurrent validity, and construct validity of the CIM.Results: All items correlated positively with each other and with the total score. Principal components factor analysis confirmed a 1-factor structure. which explained 44.1% of the variance. Internal consistency reliability, using Cronbach's alpha, was .87. Content validity was assured by the development procedure, correspondence with the theoretical model, and direct use of consumer language. Discriminant validity was supported by the CIM's ability to differentiate between subsamples. Criterion validity was supported by using correlations with the Community Integration Questionnaire. Construct validity was supported by correlations with the interpersonal Support Evaluation List.Conclusion: The CIM offers a brief, easily administered measure of community integration that conforms to an empirically derived theoretical model and is psychometrically sound.
