In recent years there has been considerable research on body awareness, which is believed to arise from interoceptive and from exteroceptive signals. In addition, body awareness may be related to empathetic disposition during social interaction. In this paper we assess the psychometric properties of the Italian version of the Scale of Body Connection (SBC). We also examine SBC correlations with the Interpersonal Reactivity Index, a measure of empathy. An Italian sample (N = 576) aged from 17 to 72 years old (M = 30.43; sd 9.41) completed these surveys online. The SBC Italian translation was validated by confirmatory factor analysis showing a good model fit. The two-scale SBC factor structure was confirmed. The SBC was positively associated with the Iterpersonal Reactivity Index (IRI), demonstrating convergent validity between these two scales. Specifically SBC-Bodily Dissociation was positively correlated with IRI-Personal Distress subscale and SBC-Body Awareness was positively correlated with IRI-Emotional Concerns, -Fantasy and -Perspective Taking subscales.
近年来，人们对身体意识进行了大量研究，认为身体意识源自内感受和外感受信号。此外，身体意识可能与社交互动中的同理心倾向有关。在本文中，我们评估了身体连接量表（SBC）意大利语版本的心理测量特性。我们还检查了 SBC 与同理心度量人际反应指数（IRI）的相关性。一个年龄在 17 岁至 72 岁之间的意大利样本（N=576），平均年龄为 30.43 岁（标准差 9.41），通过在线方式完成了这些调查。SBC 的意大利语翻译通过验证性因素分析得到了验证，显示出良好的模型拟合度。SBC 的两尺度结构得到了确认。SBC 与人际反应指数（IRI）呈正相关，表明这两个量表之间具有收敛效度。具体来说，SBC-身体分离与 IRI-个人痛苦子量表呈正相关，SBC-身体意识与 IRI-情感关注、-幻想和-观点采择子量表呈正相关。
