The psychometric properties of the Acculturative Stress Inventory for Children (ASIC) were examined with a sample of 139 Hispanic children. This self-report instrument was studied using the items of the Societal, Attitudinal, Familial, and Environmental Acculturative Stress Scale for Children (SAFE-C; Chavez, Moran, Reid, & Lopez, 1997), which had face validity for acculturative stress. The psychometric properties of the ASIC were examined by conducting an exploratory principal-axis factor analysis, which yielded a two-factor solution. The first factor includes 8 items assessing perceived discrimination and the 4 items of the second factor measure immigration-related experiences. Evidence of internal consistency and test-retest reliability for the 2 factors and the total scale were found to be adequate. In addition, sufficient estimates of convergent, discriminant, and predictive validity were obtained. Implications for future research of acculturative stress in children involving the ASIC are discussed.
我们以139名西班牙裔儿童为样本,对儿童文化适应压力量表(ASIC)的心理测量特性进行了检验。本自陈式量表是基于儿童社会、态度、家庭和环境文化适应压力量表(SAFE-C;查韦斯、莫兰、里德和洛佩兹,1997)的项目进行研究的,该量表对文化适应压力具有表面效度。通过进行探索性主轴因子分析来检验ASIC的心理测量特性,得出了一个双因子解决方案。第一个因子包括8个评估感知歧视的项目,第二个因子的4个项目测量与移民相关的经历。结果发现,这两个因子和总量表的内部一致性和重测信度证据充足。此外,还获得了足够的收敛效度、区分效度和预测效度估计值。文中讨论了ASIC对未来儿童文化适应压力研究的启示。
