This study presents the Polish version of the Gerotranscendence Scale Type 2 GST2PL) and describes the scale's psychometric properties (reliability and validity). The scale is mainly intended for research of older people.
A total of 685 (female =464, male =221) older adults (60-85 years) participated in the study. The following psychological methods were used: Gerotranscendence Scale Type 2 authored by L. Tornstam, Psychological Well-Being scale by C. Ryff, and the Self-Assessed Wisdom Scale by J.D. Webster.
An exploratory factor analysis of the Polish version of the GST2 revealed the same three-factor structure of gerotranscendence (containing the dimensions of the Cosmic, the Coherence, and the Solitude) as had been reported by Tornstam. The GST2-PLconsists of 10 items, including 8 diagnostic ones. The factor structure of the GST2-PLwas confirmed using confirmatory factor analysis.
These findings provide support for use of the GST2 in assessing the signs of gerotranscendence not only for older adults in Sweden, Japan, USA, and Taiwan but also for older adults in Poland.
本研究呈现了波兰版的超越老龄化量表第二型（GST2PL），并描述了该量表的心理测量学特性（信度和效度）。该量表主要用于研究老年人。
共有 685 名（女性=464 名，男性=221 名）老年人（60-85 岁）参与了这项研究。采用了以下心理学方法：L. Tornstam 撰写的超越老龄化量表第二型、C. Ryff 的心理幸福感量表和 J.D. Webster 的自我评估智慧量表。
波兰版 GST2 的探索性因素分析显示，与 Tornstam 报告的结果相同，存在三个维度的超越老龄化结构（包含宇宙、连贯性和孤独感）。GST2-PL 由 10 个项目组成，包括 8 个诊断项目。使用验证性因素分析确认了 GST2-PL 的因子结构。
这些发现为在波兰以及瑞典、日本、美国和中国台湾的老年人中使用 GST2 评估超越老龄化的迹象提供了支持。
