本文研究了生活满意度量表和情感量表的重测信度。样本包括229名妇女谁被采访了星期四,相隔两周,在2005年春季。净影响的相关性(即,间隔两周测量的持续时间加权的积极感受减去消极感受)为0.64,略高于生活满意度的相关性(r= 0.59)。收入,净影响和生活满意度之间的相关性,并调整由于测量误差的衰减偏差。生活满意度与收入的相关性比净影响更强。更具体的人的影响组件被发现有更高的重测信度比组件的影响,更具体的特定情况。虽然主观幸福感指标的可靠性数字低于教育、收入和许多其他微观经济变量的可靠性数字,但它们可能足够高,足以支持目前正在进行的关于主观幸福感的大部分研究,特别是在比较群体平均值的研究中(例如,跨活动或人口统计组)。
This paper studies the test–retest reliability of a standard self-reported life satisfaction measure and of affect measures collected from a diary method. The sample consists of 229 women who were interviewed on Thursdays, two weeks apart, in Spring 2005. The correlation of net affect (i.e., duration-weighted positive feelings less negative feelings) measured two weeks apart is .64, which is slightly higher than the correlation of life satisfaction (r=.59). Correlations between income, net affect and life satisfaction are presented, and adjusted for attenuation bias due to measurement error. Life satisfaction is found to correlate much more strongly with income than does net affect. Components of affect that are more person-specific are found to have a higher test–retest reliability than components of affect that are more specific to the particular situation. While reliability figures for subjective well-being measures are lower than those typically found for education, income and many other microeconomic variables, they are probably sufficiently high to support much of the research that is currently being undertaken on subjective well-being, particularly in studies where group means are compared (e.g., across activities or demographic groups).
