目的:开发一个缩短的形式,原来的50项脂肪恐惧症scale.METHOD:第一个因素,从原来的脂肪恐惧症规模-纪律严明,不活跃和unappealing-被确定为一个潜在的短形式的规模。一个新的样本255人完成了原来的50个项目的规模。缩短的14项版本的规模的可靠性进行了测试,并使用新的样本和原始样本的1135 study participants.RESULTS的完整规模相比:脂肪恐惧症量表-短的形式表现出良好的可靠性,在两个样本,并与50项规模强相关。平均值和第90百分位数的分数都给出了长和短版本的scale.CONCLUSION:缩短的脂肪恐惧症规模预计将增加效用的措施,在不同的研究和临床设置。未来的研究应该集中在发展一般人群的量表规范和男性和不同种族群体之间的脂肪恐惧症的研究。
OBJECTIVE: To develop a shortened form of the original 50-item fat phobia scale.METHOD: The first factor from the original fat phobia scale-undisciplined, inactive and unappealing-was identified as a potential short form of the scale. A new sample of 255 people completed the original 50-item scale. The reliability of a shortened 14-item version of the scale was tested and compared to that of the full scale using both the new sample and the original sample of 1135 study participants.RESULTS: The fat phobia scale - short form demonstrated excellent reliability in both samples and was strongly correlated with the 50-item scale. Mean and 90th percentile scores are given for both the long and short versions of the scale.CONCLUSION: The shortened fat phobia scale is expected to increase the utility of the measure in a diverse array of research and clinical settings. Future research should focus on developing scale norms for the general population and conducting research on fat phobia in males and among different ethnic groups.
