Loscalzo and Giannini (Loscalzo, Y., & Giannini, M. [2017]. Studyholism or Study Addiction? A comprehensive model for a possible new clinical condition. In A. M. Columbus (Ed.), Advances in psychological research, (Vol. 125, pp. 19-37). Hauppauge, NY, USA: Nova Science) recently proposed a theoretical model for a new potential clinical condition: Studyholism, or obsession toward studying. This study aims to analyze the psychometric properties of the instrument that has been created based on their theory, namely the Studyholism Inventory (SI-10). The participants are 1296 Italian college students aged between 19 and 55 years. We analyzed its factor structure, as well as its convergent and divergent validity, and we proposed the cut-off scores of the SI-10. Moreover, we investigated some demographic and study-related differences in studyholism and study engagement and the correlations with academic indicators. The results showed that the SI-10 is a ten-item (2 fillers) and 2-factor instrument (GFI = .98, CFI = .97, RMSEA = .07) with good psychometric properties. The SI-10 could be used in future research to analyze the features and correlates of studyholism, and for both clinical and preventive purposes, pointing to favor students' well-being and academic success.
洛斯卡尔佐和詹尼尼(洛斯卡尔佐,Y.,& 詹尼尼,M. [2017]。学习成瘾还是学习癖?一种可能的新临床状况的综合模型。载于A. M. 哥伦布(编),《心理学研究进展》,(第125卷,第19 - 37页)。美国纽约州哈帕克:新星科学出版社)最近提出了一种针对一种新的潜在临床状况的理论模型:学习成瘾,即对学习的痴迷。本研究旨在分析基于他们的理论创建的工具,即学习成瘾量表(SI - 10)的心理测量特性。参与者为1296名年龄在19至55岁之间的意大利大学生。我们分析了它的因子结构,以及它的聚合效度和区分效度,并提出了SI - 10的临界分数。此外,我们调查了在学习成瘾和学习投入方面的一些人口统计学和与学习相关的差异,以及与学业指标的相关性。结果表明,SI - 10是一个包含十个项目(2个填充项)的双因子工具(GFI = 0.98,CFI = 0.97,RMSEA = 0.07),具有良好的心理测量特性。SI - 10可用于未来的研究,以分析学习成瘾的特征及其相关因素,并用于临床和预防目的,以促进学生的幸福感和学业成功。
