在过去的25年里，研究人员提出了一些概念框架来衡量教学领导的各种功能。最常用的框架之一是校长教学管理评价表(PIMRS)。尽管大量的研究使用了PIMRS，但其可靠性和效度的证据相对有限。此外，我们仍然不太清楚这种工具在不同的人口统计和文化教育环境中的应用程度。本研究考察了PIMRS在中国教育系统中的内容、面貌和结构效度、信度和内部一致性。来自北京市海淀区五所中学的311名教师参与了这项研究。数据分析采用验证性因素分析(CFA)。总体而言，研究结果支持了PIMRS的面貌、内容和结构效度、信度和内部一致性。然而，50件物品中有6件必须移除才能达到令人满意的适合度指数。讨论了研究结果对评估研究工具测量性能的重要性的意义，并对未来的研究提出了建议。
During the last 25 years researchers have proposed a number of conceptual frameworks to measure the various functions of instructional leadership. One of the most frequently used frameworks is the Principal Instructional Management Rating Scale (PIMRS). Despite the great number of studies employing the PIMRS, evidence for its reliability and validity is relatively limited. In addition, we still don’t know much about the extent to which this instrument could be used in diverse demographic and cultural educational settings. This study explores the content, face, and construct validity, reliability and internal consistency of the PIMRS in the Chinese educational system. A total number of 311 teachers from five middle schools in the Haidian District of Beijing participated in the study. The data were analysed using Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA). On an overall basis the results provided support for the face, content, and construct validity, reliability and internal consistency of the PIMRS. However, six out of the 50 items had to be removed to reach satisfactory fit indices. Implications of the findings in relation to the importance of evaluating the measuring properties of research instruments are discussed and, finally, suggestions for future studies are provided.
