本文通过比较单项测量与生活满意度量表（SWLS）（一种更为心理测量学建立的测量方法）来评估单项生活满意度测量的有效性。本分析包括行为风险因素监测系统（BRFSS）招募的来自华盛顿（N= 13，064）和俄勒冈州（N= 2，277）的两个大型样本以及德国社会经济小组（GSOEP）招募的代表性德国样本（N= 1，312）。单项生活满意度测量和SWLS与理论上相关的变量，如人口统计学，主观健康，领域满意度和影响。两个生活满意度测量和这些变量之间的相关性进行了检查，以评估单项目生活满意度测量的结构效度。在三个样本中一致，单项生活满意度测量显示出与SWLS相当程度的标准有效性（零阶r = 0.62 - 0.64;衰减r = 0.78 - 0.80）。与理论相关变量的相关性的统计学显著性模式在单项测量和SWLS中是相同的。与SWLS相比，单项测量没有产生系统性不同的相关性（平均差异= 0.001 - 0.005）。单项测量和SWLS产生的相关性大小的平均绝对差非常小（平均绝对差= 0.015 - 0.042）。单项生活满意度测量与多项SWLS相比表现非常相似。社会科学家对实质性问题的答案几乎是相同的，无论他们使用哪种衡量标准。
The present paper assessed the validity of single-item life satisfaction measures by comparing single-item measures to the Satisfaction with Life Scale (SWLS) - a more psychometrically established measure. Two large samples from Washington (N=13,064) and Oregon (N=2,277) recruited by the Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS) and a representative German sample (N=1,312) recruited by the Germany Socio-Economic Panel (GSOEP) were included in the present analyses. Single-item life satisfaction measures and the SWLS were correlated with theoretically relevant variables, such as demographics, subjective health, domain satisfaction, and affect. The correlations between the two life satisfaction measures and these variables were examined to assess the construct validity of single-item life satisfaction measures. Consistent across three samples, single-item life satisfaction measures demonstrated substantial degree of criterion validity with the SWLS (zero-order r = 0.62 – 0.64; disattenuated r = 0.78 – 0.80). Patterns of statistical significance for correlations with theoretically relevant variables were the same across single-item measures and the SWLS. Single-item measures did not produce systematically different correlations compared to the SWLS (average difference = 0.001 – 0.005). The average absolute difference in the magnitudes of the correlations produced by single-item measures and the SWLS were very small (average absolute difference = 0.015 −0.042). Single-item life satisfaction measures performed very similarly compared to the multiple-item SWLS. Social scientists would get virtually identical answer to substantive questions regardless of which measure they use.
