To evaluate the psychometric properties of a new self-report questionnaire designed to assess college students' intentions to employ 31 specific alcohol-reduction strategies.
Students attending a large public university were recruited to complete alcohol-reduction, drinking history, and personality questionnaires online.
Based on item-total correlations and principal components analysis, the authors eliminated 3 items and calculated average intention ratings across the remaining 28 items. The resulting scale had appropriate unidimensionality and excellent internal consistency. Correlations of intention questionnaire scores with measures of drinking history, alcohol outcome expectancies, sensation seeking, and impression management provided some support for criterion and discriminant validity of the questionnaire.
This questionnaire could be employed as an outcome measure to evaluate prevention programs and as a clinical tool to identify clients who have little intention to employ drinking reduction strategies in heavy drinking situations.
评估新的自我报告问卷的心理测量学特性,该问卷旨在评估大学生采用 31 种具体的酒精减少策略的意向。
招募在一所大型公立大学就读的学生在线完成酒精减少、饮酒史和人格问卷。
基于项目总分相关和主成分分析,作者删除了 3 个项目,并计算了剩余 28 个项目的平均意向评分。该量表具有适当的单维度性和极好的内部一致性。意向问卷得分与饮酒史、酒精预期结果、感觉寻求和印象管理的测量之间的相关性为问卷的效标和判别效度提供了一些支持。
该问卷可作为评估预防计划的结果测量工具,也可作为临床工具,用于识别在大量饮酒情况下几乎没有采用饮酒减少策略意向的患者。
