This study examined the internal consistency reliability, factorial, convergent, discriminant, and predictive validity, as well as gender invariance of the Brief Multidimensional Students' Life Satisfaction Scale (BMSLSS; Seligson, Huebner, & Valois, 2003) in a sample of 445 adolescents (M = 16.04 years) hailing from the southernmost state of India, Kerala. The study also examined the test-retest reliability (n = 392) of the BMSLSS. The Cronbach's alpha coefficient suggested that the BMSLSS was reliable. Confirmatory factor analyses demonstrated the factorial validity of the BMSLSS. Bivariate correlational analyses provided support for the convergent, discriminant, and predictive validity of the BMSLSS. The test-retest reliability coefficient indicated the temporal stability of the BMSLSS. Finally, multi-group confirmatory factor analysis provided support for the gender invariance of the BMSLSS.
本研究检验了简版多维学生生活满意度量表(BMSLSS;Seligson、Huebner和Valois,2003)在来自印度最南端喀拉拉邦的445名青少年(M = 16.04岁)样本中的内部一致性信度、因子效度、聚合效度、区分效度和预测效度,以及性别不变性。该研究还检验了BMSLSS的重测信度(n = 392)。克朗巴哈系数表明BMSLSS是可靠的。验证性因素分析证明了BMSLSS的因子效度。双变量相关分析为BMSLSS的聚合效度、区分效度和预测效度提供了支持。重测信度系数表明了BMSLSS的时间稳定性。最后,多组验证性因素分析为BMSLSS的性别不变性提供了支持。
