最初的研究描述了多维感知社会支持量表(MSPSS)的发展,表明它是一个心理测量学上的声音工具(Zimet,Dahlem,Zimet,和法利,1988)。目前的研究试图通过使用三个不同的受试者群体证明MSPSS的内部可靠性、因子效度和子量表效度来扩展初步研究结果:(a)265名孕妇,(B)74名与家人一起生活在欧洲的青少年,和(c)55名儿科居民。MSPSS被认为具有良好的内部可靠性跨学科群体。此外,强大的因子效度证明,确认三分量表结构的MSPSS:家庭,朋友和重要的其他。最后,强有力的支持,也发现了家庭和重要的其他分量表的有效性。
The initial study describing the development of the Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support (MSPSS) indicated that it was a psychometrically sound instrument (Zimet, Dahlem, Zimet, and Farley, 1988). The current study attempted to extend the initial findings by demonstrating the internal reliability, factorial validity, and subscale validity of the MSPSS using three different subjects groups: (a) 265 pregnant women, (b) 74 adolescents living in Europe with their families, and (c) 55 pediatric residents. The MSPSS was found to have good internal reliability across subject groups. In addition, strong factorial validity was demonstrated, confirming the three-subscale structure of the MSPSS: Family, Friends, and Significant Other. Finally, strong support was also found for the validity of the Family and Significant Other subscales.
