目的：本研究的主要目的是检验一种新的 10 项疲劳测量方法——疲劳评估量表 (FAS) 的维度和心理测量质量。方法：作为纵向研究的一部分，受访者（所有每周至少工作 20 小时的工人）完成了 FAS、四项相关疲劳测量、抑郁问卷和情绪稳定性量表。结果：FAS具有较高的内部一致性。相关性和因子分析模式显示出良好的收敛效度和发散效度。 FAS 与其他疲劳量表密切相关。在五份疲劳问卷的因子分析中，FAS 在明确的单因子解决方案上具有最高的因子负载。此外，因素分析显示，一方面，疲劳，另一方面，抑郁和情绪稳定性是不同的概念。最后，结果表明，FAS 的 10 个项目中有 8 个项目在性别方面没有偏见；两个人有一致的偏见。结论：FAS 是一种具有潜在价值的评估工具，具有良好的内部一致性信度和效度。 FAS 中的性别偏见不会对 FAS 的使用产生影响。 (C) 2003 Elsevier Science Inc. 保留所有权利。
Objective: The main aim of this study was to examine the dimensionality and psychometric qualities of a new 10-item fatigue measure, the Fatigue Assessment Scale (FAS). Methods: As part of a longitudinal study, the respondents, all workers with at least 20 working hours per week, completed the FAS, four related fatigue measures, a depression questionnaire, and an emotional stability scale. Results: The FAS had a high internal consistency. The pattern of correlations and factor analysis showed good convergent and divergent validity. The FAS correlated strongly with the other fatigue scales. In a factor analysis of the five fatigue questionnaires, the FAS had the highest factor loading on a clear one-factor solution. Moreover, factor analyses revealed that fatigue, on the one hand, and depression and emotional stability, on the other hand, are separate constructs. Finally, it was shown that 8 out of the 10 FAS items were unbiased concerning gender; two had a uniform bias. Conclusions: The FAS represents a potentially valuable assessment instrument with promising internal consistency reliability and validity. Gender bias in the FAS does not have consequences for use of the FAS. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science Inc. All rights reserved.
