本研究的目的是进行一个新的35个项目的调查，在美国开发，以衡量农村身份的心理测量评估。本研究使用两个数据集对农村认同量表（RIS）的因子结构、信度、收敛效度和增量效度进行了检验。研究1研究RIS心理测量学属性使用调查数据收集的物质使用治疗顾问在东南部的状态（n=145），而研究2使用的数据收集的妇女被监禁在农村监狱（n=400）。在RIS中确定了包含15个项目的1因素结构，具有可接受的内部信度（α=.72-.83）。在研究1中，来自农村县的参与者的RIS分数显着高于他们的城市同行。在这两项研究中，收敛效度进行了评估和RIS分数显着相关的身份和农村在双变量水平的其他措施。增量效度支持多变量模型的RIS分数显着和独特的主要农村变量在每个样本。这项研究是一个可靠的，有效的规模衡量农村身份的第一步。农村认同量表作为一种方法学工具可能对健康研究特别有益，它可以将农村人口的健康行为联系起来，并突出潜在的干预措施，以促进健康公平。
The purpose of this study was to conduct a psychometric evaluation of a new 35-item survey developed in the US to measure rural identity. Factor structure, reliability, convergent validity, and incremental validity of the Rural Identity Scale (RIS) were examined using 2 datasets. Study 1 examined RIS psychometric properties using survey data collected from substance use treatment counselors in a southeastern state (n=145), while Study 2 used data collected from women incarcerated in rural jails (n=400). A 1-factor structure containing 15 items was identified in the RIS, with acceptable internal reliability (α=.72–.83). In Study 1, participants from rural counties had significantly higher RIS scores than their urban counterparts. In both studies, convergent validity was evaluated and the RIS scores were significantly associated with other measures relevant to identity and rurality at the bivariate level. Incremental validity was supported in multivariable models as the RIS scores were significantly and uniquely associated with primary rural place variables in each sample. This study is an initial step towards a reliable, valid scale measuring rural identity. The Rural Identity Scale may be especially beneficial to health research as a methodological tool that can contextualize health behaviors among rural populations and highlight potential interventions to promote health equity.
