Adversity response is fundamental to dealing with adversity. This paper reports the re-development and subsequent psychometric evaluation of the Adversity Response Profile for Chinese University Students (ARP-CUS). The data were collected from a Chinese university student sample ( = 474). Factor analysis and Rasch analysis were used to examine the psychometric properties of the ARP-CUS. Exploratory factor analysis revealed a six-factor model; then confirmatory factor analysis supported a five-factor solution. Rasch analysis provided further evidence of the psychometric quality of the instrument in terms of dimensionality, rating scale effectiveness, and item fit statistics for those six dimensions. The final version of the ARP-CUS contains 24 items across five subscales for assessing students' responses to adversity, including control, attribution, reach, endurance, and transcendence. Overall, ARP-CUS demonstrates satisfactory psychometric properties for quantifying the adversity quotient of Chinese university students.
逆境应对是应对逆境的基础。本文报告了《大学生逆境应对特征问卷（ARP-CUS）》的重新编制及随后的心理计量学评估。数据来自中国大学生样本（n=474）。使用因子分析和 Rasch 分析来检验 ARP-CUS 的心理计量学特性。探索性因素分析显示出一个六因素模型；随后的验证性因素分析支持了五因素解决方案。Rasch 分析从维度、评分量表有效性和这六个维度的项目拟合统计方面，为工具的心理计量质量提供了进一步的证据。ARP-CUS 的最终版本包含 24 个项目，涵盖五个分量表，用于评估学生对逆境的反应，包括控制、归因、到达、耐力和超越。总的来说，ARP-CUS 为量化中国大学生的逆境商数提供了令人满意的心理计量学特性。
