在心理学文献中，量表构建是一项成长性的事业。不幸的是，许多措施虽然有很大的希望，但由于其概念化和执行方面的不足而受到严重限制。在本文中，开发心理量表的模型是植根于传统的结构效度和经典的测试理论，但通知现代心理测量学方法。结构效度是概念化作为一个指导原则，在每一个三个阶段的规模发展，重点是（i）结构概念化和发展的初始项目池，（ii）项目选择和结构效度，（iii）外部效度相对于其他措施和相关的非测试标准的评估。
Scale construction is a growth enterprise in the psychological literature. Unfortunately, many measures promise much but are severely limited by the inadequacies of their conceptualization and execution. In this paper, a model for developing psychological scales is presented that is rooted in the traditions of construct validity and classical test theory but informed by modern psychometric methods. Construct validity is conceptualized as a guiding principle in each of three phases of scale development, focused on (i) construct conceptualization and development of the initial item pool, (ii) item selection and structural validity, and (iii) assessment of external validity vis-a-vis other measures and relevant nontest criteria.
