The reliability and validity of a multidimensional 13-item index of competence, called the TMIG Index of Competence, were tested with data of 6776 elderly community residents. The index was designed to measure the higher-level competence which could not be adequately assessed by existing scales. A well-fitted second-order factor model was established. Three first-order factors in the model were named Instrumental Self-Maintenance, Intellectual Activity, and Social Role, and the second-order factor was Competence. The results confirmed high reliability of the index with reliability coefficients of Alpha, test-retest, and correlation between the second-order factor score and the total score, and high validity in terms of construct, discriminant, and predictive validity.
一项名为TMIG能力指数的包含13个项目的多维能力指数的信效度,采用6776名老年社区居民的数据进行了测试。该指数旨在衡量现有量表无法充分评估的更高水平的能力。建立了一个拟合良好的二阶因子模型。模型中的三个一阶因子分别命名为工具性自我维持、智力活动和社会角色,二阶因子为能力。结果证实了该指数具有较高的信度,包括Alpha信度系数、重测信度以及二阶因子得分与总分之间的相关性,并且在结构效度、区分效度和预测效度方面具有较高的效度。
