最近，Zimbardo时间透视量表（ZPTI; Zimbardo & Boyd，1999）的缩短版本被提出作为“黄金标准”（Sircova等人，2014年，第9页）。在这项研究中，我们研究了内部一致性和结构效度的ZPTI版本的样本中的青少年从英国（N = 913）和美国（N = 815），和成年人从澳大利亚（N = 667）。结果提供了支持ZPTI分数的内部一致性，但结构效度分析表明，穷人适合和许多问题的项目。研究结果质疑使用分数在这个缩短版本的ZTPI。(C)2014爱思唯尔有限公司版权所有。
Recently, a shortened version of the Zimbardo Time Perspective Inventory (ZPTI; Zimbardo & Boyd, 1999) was proposed as a "gold standard" (Sircova et al., 2014, p. 9). In this study, we examined the internal consistency and structural validity of this version of the ZPTI in samples of adolescents from the United Kingdom (N = 913) and the United States (N = 815), and adults from Australia (N = 667). Results provided support for the internal consistency of ZPTI scores, but structural validity analyses indicated poor fit and numerous problematic items. The findings call into question the use of scores on this shortened version of the ZTPI. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
