加州大学洛杉矶分校孤独量表第三版（UCLA LS 3）是最常用的孤独评估工具。本研究的目的是研究的心理测量特性的加州大学洛杉矶分校LS 3利用两个单独的和独立的样本：土耳其大学生（n = 481）和老年人（n = 284）。结果表明，在验证性因素分析中，三因素模型在两个样本中的拟合优度指数方面都显示出显着的结果。除了令人满意的可靠性外，通过揭示UCLA LS 3与概念上相关的测量（即，大学生样本中的社会支持、社会供给、抑郁、积极情感、消极情感和自尊;老年人样本中的老年抑郁、自尊和生活满意度）和无关测量（即，社会期望）。除了研究加州大学洛杉矶分校LS 3的心理测量特性外，本研究还增加了目前关于孤独的文献，揭示了非西方文化。
The University of California, Los Angeles, Loneliness Scale-Version 3 (UCLA LS3) is the most frequently used loneliness assessment tool. This study aimed to examine the psychometric properties of the UCLA LS3 by utilizing two separate and independent samples: Turkish university students (n = 481) and elderly (n = 284). The results demonstrate that the 3-factor model reveals significant results in both samples in terms of goodness of fit indices in confirmatory factor analysis. In addition to satisfactory reliability, the concurrent and discriminant validity of the scale were supported in both samples by revealing the association of the UCLA LS3 with conceptually related measures (i.e., social support, social provision, depression, positive affect, negative affect, and self esteem in the sample of university students; geriatric depression, self esteem and life satisfaction in the sample of elderly) and the unrelated measure (i.e., social desirability). In addition to examining the psychometric properties of the UCLA LS3, the present study adds to the present literature about loneliness, shedding light on a non-western culture.
