The purpose of the paper is to show the construction of 8 Likert-type rating scales for measuring 8 attitudinal and psychological characteristics of drug abusers. They are: attitude toward drug taking, interpersonal relationships, self-concept, personal values, risk-taking tendency, motivation, rebelliousness, and pleasure seeking. A random sample of 20 drug abusers and their 20 nondrug controls individually matched for sex, approximate age, race, educational stream, and neighborhood was employed. The procedure of construction is discussed in detail, which includes definition of rating scales, review and comments of judges, item selection, and validation of rating scales. The final form of these 8 rating scales with 12 items each was obtained. They are shown to have presumably satisfactory face validity and content validity as well as high reliability ranging from .83 to .98.
本文的目的是展示用于测量吸毒者8种态度和心理特征的8个李克特式评定量表的构建。它们分别是:对吸毒的态度、人际关系、自我概念、个人价值观、冒险倾向、动机、叛逆性和寻求快感。采用了一个由20名吸毒者及其20名非吸毒对照者组成的随机样本,这些对照者在性别、大致年龄、种族、教育流派和邻里关系方面进行了个体匹配。详细讨论了构建过程,包括评定量表的定义、评委的审查和评论、项目选择以及评定量表的验证。最终获得了这8个评定量表的最终形式,每个量表有12个项目。结果表明,它们可能具有令人满意的表面效度和内容效度,以及0.83至0.98的高信度。
