Schizotypy is the latent personality reflecting the liability to schizophrenia. The Multidimensional Schizotypy Scale (MSS) is a newly developed questionnaire to measure the levels of schizotypy. The Chinese version of MSS has been developed and previous findings supported its structure validity. The present study aimed to examine the construct validity of the Chinese version of the MSS by correlating it with the Schizotypal Personality Questionnaire (SPQ). A total of 1359 university students completed the MSS and the SPQ online. The results of 1027 valid participants demonstrated that all MSS dimensions showed good internal consistency. The MSS positive dimension is strongly correlated with SPQ cognitive-perceptual factor, the MSS negative dimension with the SPQ interpersonal factor, and the MSS disorganized dimension with the SPQ disorganized factor. Taken together, our study provides evidence for construct validity of the Chinese version of the MSS.
精神分裂症特质是反映个体易患精神分裂症的潜在人格特质。多维精神分裂症特质量表(MSS)是一种新开发的用于测量精神分裂症特质水平的问卷。MSS 的中文版已经开发出来,先前的研究结果支持其结构效度。本研究旨在通过与精神分裂症人格问卷(SPQ)的相关性来检验 MSS 中文版的结构效度。共有 1359 名大学生在线完成了 MSS 和 SPQ。1027 名有效参与者的结果表明,MSS 的所有维度都具有良好的内部一致性。MSS 阳性维度与 SPQ 的认知知觉因子高度相关,MSS 阴性维度与 SPQ 的人际因子相关,MSS 紊乱维度与 SPQ 的紊乱因子相关。综上所述,本研究为 MSS 中文版的结构效度提供了证据。
