本研究的目的是检验社会问题解决量表-修正短表（SPS-IR:SF）的心理测量特性，这是一种25项的现实生活中社会问题解决能力的自我报告测量。219名年龄在16-25岁之间的澳大利亚大学生参与了这项研究。SPSI-R: SF量表的信度为足够至优秀。证据证明了收敛效度和发散效度。验证性因子分析结果与以往研究一致，模型拟合良好。此外，判别函数分析显示，SPSI-R: SF能够显著区分低水平和高水平的抑郁症状。综上所述，结果表明SPSI-R: SF是一种可靠有效的工具，可以有效地评估澳大利亚年轻人的社会问题解决能力。讨论了研究的局限性和未来的研究方向。
The purpose of the present study was to examine the psychometric properties of the Social Problem-Solving Inventory-Revised Short-Form(SPS-IR:SF), a 25-item self-report measure of real life social problem-solving ability. A sample of 219 Australian university students aged 16-25 years participated in the study. The reliability of the SPSI-R: SF scales was adequate to excellent. Evidence was demonstrated for convergent validity and divergent validity. Confirmatory factor analysis resultswere in linewith past research and suggested good model fit. In addition, discriminant function analysis revealed that the SPSI-R: SF was able to significantly discriminate low and high levels of depressive symptomatology. Collectively, results suggest that the SPSI-R: SF represents a reliable and valid instrument for efficient assessment of social problem-solving ability in young Australian adults. Limitations and future research are also discussed.
