The authors present the construct validity of the French version of the Relationship Scales Questionnaire (RSQ) designed by Griffin and Bartholomew (1994), which is the most widely-used self-report concerning adult attachment.
To improve knowledge on the psychometric properties of the RSQ by studying the construct validity on a sample of adults.
Subjects were recruited in a primary social care setting in Paris, France, and asked to fill in the RSQ twice: the first time just before meeting the social worker in charge, the second time, at home, with a prestamped form, two days later. A questionnaire on sociodemographic and economic variables was also filled in during the first time. Statistical analyses were conducted using Exploratory Factor Analysis with orthogonal rotation. The reliability was studied using Cronbach's coefficient for each new scale from the factor analysis. The test-retest reliability was studied for the prototypic scales and for the scales from the factor analysis, using the intra-class correlation method.
One hundred and twenty-six subjects were recruited and completed the two forms (mean interval: 2.16 days). The factor analysis gives a three-factor structure explaining 48% of the total variance. The three factors were: factor 1 "Avoidance" with seven items explaining 21% of the total variance; factor 2 "Anxiety in the relationships" (five items) explaining 14% of total variance and factor 3 "Security" (five items) explaining 11% of the total variance. Cronbach's coefficient was low for the prototypical scales (0.41 for "secure", 0.54 for "fearful", 0.22 for "preoccupied", and moderate for "dismissive" (0.64). It was moderate for the scales designed from the factor analysis (0.66 for F1, 0.69 for F2 and 0 .60 for F3). The Intraclass Coefficients (ICC) were modest for the four prototypical scales (ICC<0.70) and were good for the scales designed from the factor analysis (F1: ICC=0.80; F2: ICC=0.85 and F3: ICC=0.78).
The construct validity studied on an adult sample confirms the good psychometric properties of the RSQ considering the factor analysis, the test-retest short time reliability and the internal consistency. The factor analysis with three factors provides a different structure of classical descriptions with only two factors, but confirms the most recent results on Attachment Self-Reports that find a factor concerning security and two factors concerning management of insecurity (avoidance and anxiety in relationships). To be confirmed, the results require further research (confirmatory factor analysis, larger sample, other type of population).
作者展示了由格里芬和巴塞洛缪（1994年）设计的关系量表问卷（RSQ）法语版的结构效度，该问卷是关于成人依恋最广泛使用的自我报告。
通过研究成人样本的结构效度来增进对RSQ心理测量特性的了解。
在法国巴黎的一个初级社会护理机构招募受试者，并要求他们两次填写RSQ：第一次在与主管社会工作者会面之前，第二次在两天后在家中使用预先盖章的表格填写。第一次填写时还填写了一份关于社会人口统计学和经济变量的问卷。使用具有正交旋转的探索性因素分析进行统计分析。使用因素分析中每个新量表的克朗巴赫系数研究信度。使用组内相关方法研究原型量表和因素分析中量表的重测信度。
招募了126名受试者并完成了两份表格（平均间隔：2.16天）。因素分析得出一个三因素结构，解释了总方差的48%。这三个因素是：因素1“回避”，有七个项目，解释了总方差的21%；因素2“关系中的焦虑”（五个项目），解释了总方差的14%；因素3“安全”（五个项目），解释了总方差的11%。原型量表的克朗巴赫系数较低（“安全型”为0.41，“恐惧型”为0.54，“痴迷型”为0.22，“轻视型”为中等（0.64）。因素分析设计的量表为中等（F1为0.66，F2为0.69，F3为0.60）。四个原型量表的组内相关系数（ICC）适中（ICC<0.70），因素分析设计的量表良好（F1：ICC = 0.80；F2：ICC = 0.85；F3：ICC = 0.78）。
在成人样本上研究的结构效度，考虑到因素分析、短时间重测信度和内部一致性，证实了RSQ良好的心理测量特性。三因素的因素分析提供了与仅两个因素的经典描述不同的结构，但证实了依恋自我报告的最新结果，即发现一个关于安全的因素和两个关于不安全管理的因素（回避和关系中的焦虑）。为得到证实，结果需要进一步研究（验证性因素分析、更大样本、其他类型人群）。
