We assessed the factor structure, correlates, and incremental validity of the Pain Appraisal Inventory in Chinese adult chronic pain samples. In an initial exploratory factor analysis sample ( = 301), the original two-component (threat, challenge) 16-item Pain Appraisal Inventory and a 10-item short form (Pain Appraisal Inventory-Short Form) were supported. Within a confirmatory factor analysis sample (= 285), uniformly acceptable fits were observed only for the Pain Appraisal Inventory-Short Form. Furthermore, Pain Appraisal Inventory-Short Form threat and challenge subscales had significant correlations with conceptually related measures and added to prediction models for pain-related coping and adjustment, independent of other pain belief scales. Together, results indicated that the Pain Appraisal Inventory-Short Form has utility in Chinese chronic pain samples.
我们评估了疼痛评估量表在中文成人慢性疼痛样本中的结构因素、相关性和增量有效性。在初始探索性因素分析样本（n=301）中，原始的两因素（威胁、挑战）16 项疼痛评估量表和 10 项短表（疼痛评估量表-短表）得到了支持。在验证性因素分析样本（n=285）中，仅疼痛评估量表-短表观察到了一致的可接受拟合。此外，疼痛评估量表-短表的威胁和挑战分量表与概念上相关的测量指标显著相关，并为疼痛相关应对和调整的预测模型提供了补充，独立于其他疼痛信念量表。总的来说，结果表明疼痛评估量表-短表在中文慢性疼痛样本中有一定的效用。
