The purpose of this study was to examine the psychometric structure of the Conformity to Masculine Norms Inventory (CMNI) in relation to the Rasch model. The CMNI was specifically constructed to measure a set of unidimensional constructs. As such, the items were intended to define a uniform spread of locations along each construct. The CMNI measures conformity to twelve masculine norms: winning, emotional control, risk-taking, violence, dominance, playboy, self-reliance, primacy of work, power over women, disdain for homosexuals, physical toughness, and pursuit of status. Three hundred forty-eight men participated in the study. In addition to examining global Rasch characteristics and the unidimensionality of each of the 12 scales, a detailed Rasch rating scale analysis is provided for the Violence Scale with unusual response patterns discussed in terms of their clinical usefulness. The results across all 12 scales reveal an excellent congruence between the theoretically derived construct of conformity to masculine norms and the theoretically defined objectives of the Rasch rating scale model.
本研究的目的是检验与拉施模型相关的男性规范遵从量表(CMNI)的心理测量结构。CMNI专门构建用于测量一组单维结构。因此,这些项目旨在定义沿每个结构的位置的均匀分布。CMNI测量对十二种男性规范的遵从:获胜、情绪控制、冒险、暴力、支配、花花公子、自力更生、工作至上、对女性的权力、对同性恋者的蔑视、身体强壮和追求地位。348名男性参与了该研究。除了检验总体拉施特征和12个量表中每个量表的单维性之外,还针对暴力量表提供了详细的拉施评级量表分析,并根据其临床实用性讨论了异常反应模式。所有12个量表的结果显示,理论上推导的男性规范遵从结构与拉施评级量表模型的理论定义目标之间具有极好的一致性。
