The First Episode Social Functioning Scale (FESFS) was designed to measure social functioning of young individuals with schizophrenia. The aim of this study was to validate a Chinese version of the FESFS in a sample of young Chinese adults.
The FESFS was translated to Chinese prior to being administered to 1576 college students. The factor structure, reliability, and validity of the scale were examined.
Two items were deleted after item analysis and the internal consistency of the whole scale was .89. A six-factor structure was derived by exploratory factor analysis. The factors were interpersonal, family and friends, school, living skills, intimacy, and balance. Estimates of the structural equation model supported this structure, with Goodness of Fit Chi-Square χ(2) = 1097.53 (p<0.0001), the root mean square error of approximation (RMSEA) = 0.058, and the comparative fit index (CFI) = 0.93. Scale validity was supported by significant correlations between social functioning factors scores and schizophrenia personality questionnaire (SPQ) scores. Individuals with schizotypal personality features presented poorer social functioning than those without schizotypal personality features.
The Chinese revised version of the FESFS was found to have good psychometric properties and could be used in the future to examine social functioning in Chinese college students.
首次发作社交功能量表（FESFS）旨在衡量年轻精神分裂症患者的社交功能。本研究旨在对中国青年成年人样本中 FESFS 的中文版进行验证。
在对 1576 名大学生进行测试之前，将 FESFS 翻译成中文。对量表的结构、信度和效度进行了检验。
项目分析后删除了两项，整个量表的内部一致性为 0.89。通过探索性因子分析得出了六因子结构。这些因子分别是人际关系、家庭和朋友、学校、生活技能、亲密关系和平衡。结构方程模型的估计值支持该结构，拟合优度卡方 χ(2) = 1097.53（p<0.0001），近似均方根误差（RMSEA）为 0.058，拟合优度指数（CFI）为 0.93。社会功能因子得分与精神分裂症人格问卷（SPQ）得分之间存在显著相关性，这支持了量表的有效性。具有精神分裂症人格特征的个体的社交功能比没有精神分裂症人格特征的个体差。
中文版 FESFS 具有良好的心理计量学特性，可用于未来评估中国大学生的社交功能。
