Mindfulness-based interventions are increasingly being used in various populations to improve well-being and reduce psychological afflictions. However, there is lack of a validated mindfulness measurement in the Chinese language. This study validated the Chinese version of the Five Facet Mindfulness Questionnaire (FFMQ-C) in both a community sample of 230 adults and a clinical sample of 156 patients with significant psychological distress. Results showed a good test-retest reliability (.88) and a high internal consistency (.83 in the community sample and .80 in the clinical sample). Mindfulness as measured by FFMQ-C has moderate to large correlations with psychological distress and mental well-being. Two of the five subscales (describing and acting with awareness) showed incremental validity over the others in predicting psychological symptoms and mental health. Confirmatory factor analysis confirmed the five-factor structure of the FFMQ-C and demonstrated adequate model fit. A 20-item short form scale (FFMQ-SF) was developed using the proposed comprehensive criteria. These findings indicate that the FFMQ-C is reliable and valid to measure mindfulness in a Chinese population. Further study is needed to evaluate the psychometric properties of FFMQ-SF.
基于正念的干预措施正越来越多地应用于各类人群，以改善幸福感并减轻心理痛苦。然而，目前缺乏经过验证的中文正念测量工具。本研究在230名成年人的社区样本和156名有显著心理困扰的患者的临床样本中，对中文版的五因素正念问卷（FFMQ-C）进行了验证。结果显示，该问卷具有良好的重测信度（0.88）和较高的内部一致性（社区样本中为0.83，临床样本中为0.80）。FFMQ-C所测量的正念与心理困扰和心理健康之间存在中度到高度的相关性。五个分量表中的两个（描述和有意识行动）在预测心理症状和心理健康方面比其他分量表具有增量效度。验证性因素分析证实了FFMQ-C的五因素结构，并显示出良好的模型拟合度。使用提议的综合标准开发了一个20项的简版量表（FFMQ-SF）。这些发现表明，FFMQ-C在测量中国人群的正念方面是可靠且有效的。需要进一步研究来评估FFMQ-SF的心理测量特性。
