社会和行为科学家对态度和个性特征的简短测量越来越感兴趣。基于因子分析和现有数据集（n = 400名成年人），我们构建了一个5项和10项版本的广泛使用的动物态度量表（AAS）。两个版本都与原始的20项质谱高度相关（r < 0.95, p < 0.001），并且两个版本都具有可接受的信度和效度。AAS-5和AAS-10具有良好的心理测量特性，为需要方便和简短的动物福利态度测量的研究人员提供了替代方法。
There is increasing interest among social and behavioral scientists in brief measures of attitudes and personality traits. Based on factor analysis and using an existing data set (n = 400 adults), we constructed a 5- and a 10-item version of the widely used Animal Attitude Scale (AAS). Both versions were highly correlated with the original 20-item MS (rs > 0.95, p < 0.001), and both versions demonstrated acceptable reliability and validity. The AAS-5 and the AAS-10 have excellent psychometric properties and offer alternatives for researchers who need convenient and short measures of attitudes related to animal welfare.
