The purpose of this study was to validate the Volition in Exercise Questionnaire in Italian language (VEQ-I). The translation and cultural adaptation of the VEQ-I was conducted using the forward-backward translation method. VEQ-I eighteen items correspond to the six-factors structure of the original version. The construct validity was verified by the confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) (CFI = 0.960; TLI = 0.943; RMSEA = 0.039; and SRMR = 0.040). The eighteen items were well distributed in six subscales and the six-factors structure of the questionnaire was supported. Internal Consistency value of the questionnaire was investigated for each subscale of the VEQ-I. Cronbach's alpha and Omega values of the Reasons, Postponing Training, Unrelated Thoughts, Self-Confidence, Approval from Others and Coping with Failure subscales were 0.76 (α) and 0.76 (ω), 0.76 (α) and 0.76 (ω), 0.87 (α) and 0.88 (ω), 0.85 (α) and 0.85 (ω), 0.70 (α) and 0.72 (ω) and 0.74 (α) and 0.74 (ω), respectively. They were acceptable in all the six subscales. The concurrent validity was assessed using the correlation among the subscales of VEQ-I measures and those contained in two questionnaires: Psychobiosocial States in Physical Education (PBS-SPE) and Exercise Motivations Inventory (EMI-2).
本研究旨在验证意大利语版的运动意愿问卷（VEQ-I）。VEQ-I 的翻译和文化适应性采用了正向-反向翻译法。VEQ-I 的十八个项目对应于原始版本的六个因素结构。结构有效性通过验证性因素分析（CFA）（CFI=0.960；TLI=0.943；RMSEA=0.039；SRMR=0.040）进行了验证。十八个项目均匀分布在六个分量表中，问卷的六个因素结构得到了支持。对 VEQ-I 的每个分量表进行了问卷的内部一致性值的调查。REASONS、POSTPONING TRAINING、UNRELATED THOUGHTS、SELF-CONFIDENCE、APPROVAL FROM OTHERS 和 COPING WITH FAILURE 分量表的 Cronbach's alpha 和 Omega 值分别为 0.76（α）和 0.76（ω）、0.76（α）和 0.76（ω）、0.87（α）和 0.88（ω）、0.85（α）和 0.85（ω）、0.70（α）和 0.72（ω）和 0.74（α）和 0.74（ω）。在所有六个分量表中，这些值都是可接受的。同时效度通过评估 VEQ-I 测量的分量表与两个问卷（体育教育心理生物状态问卷（PBS-SPE）和运动动机量表（EMI-2））之间的分量表之间的相关性来评估。
