To test the reliability and validity of Meaningful Life Measure-Chinese Revised (MLM-CR) in Chinese college students.
A total of 1035 college students were evaluated with MLM-CR, Satisfaction with Life Scale (SWLS), Purpose in Life (PIL) and Patient Health Questionnaire-2 (PHQ-2), and 120 of the students were examined with PIL-SF twice.
All the items in MLM-CR had good discrimination indexes (r=0.753-0.838, P<0.001). Confirmatory factor analysis confirmed the hypothesized five-factor model of MLM-CR (Χ/df=3.4, GFI=0.946, AGFI=0.924, RMR=0.069, NFI=0.953, CFI=0.966, RMSEA=0.048). The total internal consistency reliability of MLM-CR was 0.942, and the alpha coefficients of the 5 dimensions ranged from 0.782 to 0.877; the total split-half reliability was 0.920, and the split-half reliability of the 5 dimensions ranged from 0.752 to 0.830; the total test-retest reliability was 0.871, and the test-retest reliability of the 5 dimensions ranged from 0.783 to 0.805. The criterion validity of MLM-CR in correlation with SWLS, PIL and PHQ-2 was 0.66, 0.755 and -0.388, respectively (P<0.01). The Average score of MLM-CR of the college students was 5.20∓0.90, and the scores were significantly higher in female students than in the male students (P<0.001).
MLM-CR has good psychometric properties for application in comprehensive evaluation of personal meaning in life.
检验中文版修订版有意义生活量表（MLM-CR）在中国大学生中的信效度。
对1035名大学生进行MLM-CR、生活满意度量表（SWLS）、生活目的量表（PIL）和患者健康问卷-2（PHQ-2）评估，其中120名学生接受了两次PIL-SF测试。
MLM-CR所有条目均有良好的区分度指标（r=0.753-0.838，P<0.001）。验证性因素分析证实了MLM-CR假设的五因素模型（χ/df=3.4，GFI=0.946，AGFI=0.924，RMR=0.069，NFI=0.953，CFI=0.966，RMSEA=0.048）。MLM-CR的总内部一致性信度为0.942，5个维度的α系数范围为0.782至0.877；总折半信度为0.920，5个维度的折半信度范围为0.752至0.830；总重测信度为0.871，5个维度的重测信度范围为0.783至0.805。MLM-CR与SWLS、PIL和PHQ-2的效标效度分别为0.66、0.755和-0.388（P<0.01）。大学生MLM-CR平均得分为5.20±0.90，女生得分显著高于男生（P<0.001）。
MLM-CR在用于综合评估个人生活意义方面具有良好的心理测量学特性。
