该研究测试了保护行为策略量表(PBSS; Martens等人,2005年),在大学生样本中,男性和女性的比例相当。多组验证性因素分析测试了是否有一个类似的3因素潜在结构是跨性别组共享,以及项目的起源(即阈值)和单个项目和潜在因素(即因素负荷)之间的关联强度是否在性别组之间是相等的。多指标多原因(MIMIC)模型测试测量参数的性别差异是否被解释为大学男性和女性之间的饮酒模式。结果表明,显着的测量偏差(即,非不变的测量参数)跨性别组的因素结构和单个项目水平。此外,MIMIC模型表明,项目负荷和阈值的性别差异不能更好地解释男女大学生饮酒模式的差异。研究结果表明,潜在因素得分的性别差异可能反映了测量偏差,而不是真正的性别群体之间的平均差异,限制有意义的比较PBSS成绩之间的大学男性和女性。具体的策略,以及临床干预措施,包括大学生的保护性行为策略的组成部分进行了评估的影响进行了讨论。(PsycInfo数据库记录(c)2023阿帕,保留所有权利)
This study tested whether the measurement parameters of the Protective Behavioral Strategies Scale (PBSS; Martens et al., 2005) were equivalent for men and women in a college student sample. Multi-group confirmatory factor analyses tested whether a similar 3-factor latent structure was shared across gender groups and whether item origins (ie, thresholds) and the strength of associations between individual items and latent factors (ie, factor loadings) were equivalent across gender groups. Multiple indicators multiple causes (MIMIC) models tested whether gender differences in measurement parameters were explained by drinking patterns among college men and women. Results evidenced significant measurement bias (ie, non-invariant measurement parameters) across gender groups at both the factor structure and individual item level. In addition, MIMIC models suggested that gender differences in item loadings and thresholds were not better explained by discrepancies in drinking patterns among male and female college students. Findings indicate that gender differences in latent factor scores may reflect measurement bias rather than true mean differences between gender groups, restricting meaningful comparisons of PBSS scores between college men and women. Implications for the assessment of specific strategies as well as clinical interventions among college students that include components on protective behavioral strategies are discussed.(PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2023 APA, all rights reserved)
