The present study aims to develop and examine the reliability, internal validity, and criterion validity of the Life Skills Scale for Adolescents and Adults (LSSAA) that would enable measurement of the level of life skills in Japanese adolescents and adults. In study 1, 238 university students completed a 41-item questionnaire for the LSSAA based on a previous study (Kase et al., 2016). Exploratory factor analysis was divided into four sub-scales: decision-making (8 items), interpersonal relationships (5 items), effective communication (5 items), and coping with emotion (3 items). In study 2, the reliability, content validity, and criterion validity of the LSSAA were examined by administering the questionnaire to 500 Japanese adolescents and adults. Confirmatory factor analysis and correlation analysis showed that the LSSAA had high reliability and validity. Additionally, it was confirmed that the LSSAA was effective for measuring the life skills needed for a satisfactory social life for a wide range (based on sex and/or age) of Japanese adolescents and adults.
本研究旨在开发并检验青少年及成人生活技能量表（LSSAA）的信度、内部效度和效标效度，该量表将能够测量日本青少年及成人的生活技能水平。在研究1中，238名大学生根据先前的一项研究（Kase等人，2016年）完成了一份包含41个条目的LSSAA问卷。探索性因素分析将其分为四个子量表：决策（8个条目）、人际关系（5个条目）、有效沟通（5个条目）和情绪应对（3个条目）。在研究2中，通过向500名日本青少年及成人发放问卷，检验了LSSAA的信度、内容效度和效标效度。验证性因素分析和相关分析表明，LSSAA具有较高的信度和效度。此外，还证实了LSSAA对于测量广泛范围（基于性别和/或年龄）的日本青少年及成人满意社交生活所需的生活技能是有效的。
