积极认知在精神病理学中的作用日益得到认可。已经设计出了这种结构的几种措施。最广为人知的测量积极自我参照思维的工具是自动思维问卷(ATQ-P)。本研究探讨了荷兰语版问卷的心理测量学特性。数据来自257名失去亲人的成年人。验证性因素分析表明，由积极的日常功能、积极的自我评价、他人的自我评价、积极的未来期望和积极的社会功能组成的5因素模型与数据吻合较好。这个模型是对ATQ-P开发者最初提出的四因素模型的轻微修改，在该模型中，与积极社会功能有关的项目是积极日常功能因素的一部分。ATQ-P的内部一致性和短期稳定性是令人满意的。此外，ATQ-P的5个因子和总分均表现出较好的区分性、构造性、发散性和趋同性。综上所述，本研究表明荷兰ATQ-P是一种有效的积极自动认知测量工具。
The role of positive cognitions in psychopathology is increasingly recognized. Several measures of this construct have been devised. The most well-known instrument to measure positive self-referent thoughts is the Automatic Thoughts Questionnaire - Positive (ATQ - P). The present study explored the psychometric properties of the Dutch version of this questionnaire. Data were derived from 257 bereaved adults. Confirmatory Factor Analysis showed that an oblique 5-factor model with items pertaining to Positive Daily Functioning, Positive Self-Evaluation, Other's Evaluation of Self, Positive Future Expectations, and Positive Social Functioning fit the data well. This model was a slight modification of the 4-factor model originally proposed by the developers of the ATQ - P, in which items pertaining to Positive Social Functioning were part of the factor Positive Daily Functioning. The internal consistency and the short-term temporal stability of the ATQ - P were found to be satisfactory. In addition, the 5 factors as well as the summed total score of the ATQ - P showed adequate discriminative, construct, divergent and convergent validity. In sum, the present study indicates that the Dutch ATQ - P is an effective measure of positive automatic cognitions.
