两项研究考察了双元适应量表（DAS）（Spanier，1976）的七项版本的心理测量学方面。在研究1中，来自148名寻求婚姻治疗服务的异性恋客户和122对异性恋夫妇在社区的数据被用来评估DAS-7的标准有效性。该措施区分了诊所和社区参与者之间的婚姻，并根据DAS的完整评分将婚姻归类为痛苦或调整。在研究2中，DAS-7作为一个单独的规模管理时的可靠性和收敛效度进行了评估，在一个社区样本的162名参与者谁是已婚或同居的异性恋关系。所获得的值与先前研究中报告的值相当，其中DAS-7是通过从参与者的完整DAS中提取项目获得的。这些结果表明，DAS-7是一个心理测量学健全的简短形式，用于评估婚姻适应。
Two studies examine psychometric aspects of the seven-item version of the Dyadic Adjustment Scale (DAS) (Spanier, 1976). In Study 1, data from 148 heterosexual clients seeking marital therapy services and 122 heterosexual couples in the community were used to assess the criterion validity of the DAS-7 The measure differentiated between clinic and community participants and between marriages classified as distressed or adjusted based on the full DAS score. In Study 2, the reliability and convergent validity of the DAS-7 when administered as a separate scale, was assessed in a community sample of 162 participants who were married or were in cohabiting heterosexual relationships. Obtained values were comparable to those reported in previous research in which the DAS-7 was obtained by extracting items from participants 'full DAS. These results demonstrate that the DAS-7 is a psychometrically sound short form for assessing marital adjustment.
