Few instruments have been designed specifically to address the needs of college counseling centers. This article reviews existing instruments and presents 4 studies that describe the development and psychometric properties of a new instrument, the Counseling Center Assessment of Psychological Symptoms-62 (CCAPS-62). Study 1 describes the initial item development, factor analysis, and preliminary scale development steps. Study 2 describes the results of exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses using data from more than 22,000 clients pooled via a national practice-research network of counseling centers. Studies 3 and 4 provide preliminary evidence of subscales' convergent validity and retest reliability. Results from these 4 studies provide support for the instrument's factor structure, construct validity, and subscale reliabilities for both the total sample and subgroups. Clinical and methodological issues pertaining to the future development of the CCAPS are discussed in the context of a national practice-research network of college counseling centers.
几乎没有专门针对大学咨询中心需求而设计的工具。本文回顾了现有的工具,并介绍了 4 项研究,这些研究描述了一种新工具——咨询中心心理症状评估-62 项(CCAPS-62)的开发和心理测量特性。研究 1 描述了初始项目开发、因素分析和初步量表开发步骤。研究 2 描述了使用通过全国咨询中心实践研究网络汇集的超过 22,000 名客户的数据进行的探索性和验证性因素分析的结果。研究 3 和 4 提供了子量表聚合效度和重测信度的初步证据。这 4 项研究的结果为该工具的总样本和子样本的因子结构、结构效度和子量表信度提供了支持。在全国咨询中心实践研究网络的背景下,讨论了与 CCAPS 未来发展相关的临床和方法学问题。
