We examine the psychometric validity of the Ambiguous Intentions Hostility Questionnaire (AIHQ) by applying confirmatory factor analysis (CFA). Previous analysis of psychometric features of the AIHQ showed problems with internal consistency and stability of the tool over time. By using CFA we wanted to check whether the scenes depicted in the questionnaire actually measure the same construct and whether the subscale measures are intercorrelated. The analysis included ambivalent scenes and was conducted on offenders ( = 108) and the general population ( = 161). Results indicated that the structure proposed by the AIHQ authors differs from that revealed by the statistical procedures. It appears that the AIHQ factor structure is centered on situational contexts rather than on particular questions measuring constructs of hostility and blame. We discuss these findings with regard to application of the AIHQ in clinical samples.
我们通过应用验证性因素分析（CFA）来检验模糊意图敌意问卷（AIHQ）的心理测量有效性。之前对 AIHQ 的心理测量特征的分析显示，该工具在内部一致性和随时间的稳定性方面存在问题。通过使用 CFA，我们想检查问卷中描述的场景实际上是否测量相同的结构，以及子量表测量是否相互关联。该分析包括矛盾的场景，并在罪犯（= 108）和普通人群（= 161）中进行。结果表明，AIHQ 作者提出的结构与统计程序揭示的结构不同。似乎 AIHQ 的因子结构以情境背景为中心，而不是以特定问题来衡量敌意和责备的结构。我们将这些发现与在临床样本中应用 AIHQ 进行了讨论。
