Reports an error in "Measurement invariance and other psychometric properties of the Short Inventory of Problems (SIP-2R) across racial groups in adults experiencing homelessness and alcohol use disorder" by Silvi C. Goldstein, Nichea S. Spillane, Marie C. Tate, Lonnie A. Nelson and Susan E. Collins (, 2023[Mar], Vol 37[2], 199-208). The sample sizes in the first sentence of the Method section in the abstract now appear as (N = 493; NAI = 125, Black = 205, and White = 163). All versions of this article have been corrected. (The following abstract of the original article appeared in record 2022-58798-001.) Objective: People experiencing homelessness are disproportionately impacted by alcohol-related harm. Racially minoritized groups are disproportionately represented in the homeless population and are likewise disproportionately impacted by alcohol-related harm. Most alcohol outcome measures have not been adequately psychometrically studied in this marginalized population and across racial groups. This study documents psychometric properties, including measurement invariance, reliability, and convergent validity, of a measure of alcohol-related harm, the Short Inventory of Problems (SIP-2R), across Black, North American Indigenous (NAI), and White adults experiencing homelessness and alcohol use disorder (AUD).
Adults experiencing homelessness and AUD who had participated in one of two randomized controlled trials of harm-reduction treatment ( = 493; NAI = 125, Black = 205, and White = 163) were included in this psychometric study of the 15-item SIP-2R.
Multigroup confirmatory factor analysis (MGCFA) indicated that a model comprising one general alcohol-related harm factor overarching five factors, showed close fit and partial scalar invariance, ²(329, = 493) = 624.902, < .001, comparative fit index (CFI) = .966, root-mean-square error of approximation (RMSEA) = .074, 90% CI [.066, .083], standardized root-mean-square residual (SRMR) = .063, confirming acceptable measurement equivalence across racial groups. The SIP-2R showed internal consistency (α = .94, ω = .95) and convergent validity, that is, positive correlation between the total SIP-2R score and the number of drinks consumed the heaviest drinking day, ρ(490) = .30, < .001.
This study provided support for the internal consistency, convergent validity, and cross-group measurement equivalence of the SIP-2R for NAI, Black, and White adults experiencing homelessness with AUD. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2024 APA, all rights reserved).
西尔维·C·戈尔茨坦、尼西亚·S·斯皮兰、玛丽·C·泰特、朗尼·A·纳尔逊和苏珊·E·柯林斯所著的《无家可归且患有酒精使用障碍的成年人中，跨种族群体的问题简短量表（SIP - 2R）的测量不变性及其他心理测量特性》（2023年3月，第37卷第2期，199 - 208页）报告了一处错误。摘要中方法部分第一句的样本量现在显示为（N = 493；北美原住民[NAI] = 125，黑人 = 205，白人 = 163）。本文所有版本均已更正。（原始文章的以下摘要出现在记录2022 - 58798 - 001中。）目的：无家可归者受酒精相关危害的影响尤为严重。少数族裔群体在无家可归人口中占比过高，同样也受到酒精相关危害的不成比例影响。大多数酒精相关结果测量指标在这一边缘化人群及不同种族群体中尚未得到充分的心理测量学研究。本研究记录了一种酒精相关危害测量指标——问题简短量表（SIP - 2R）在患有酒精使用障碍（AUD）的黑人、北美原住民（NAI）和白人无家可归成年人中的心理测量特性，包括测量不变性、信度和收敛效度。
参与两项减少伤害治疗随机对照试验之一的患有AUD的无家可归成年人（N = 493；NAI = 125，黑人 = 205，白人 = 163）被纳入这项对15项SIP - 2R的心理测量学研究。
多组验证性因素分析（MGCFA）表明，一个包含一个总体酒精相关危害因素及五个子因素的模型显示出良好拟合和部分标量不变性，χ²(329, N = 493) = 624.9, p <.001，比较拟合指数（CFI） =.966，近似均方根误差（RMSEA） =.074，90%置信区间[.066,.083]，标准化均方根残差（SRMR） =.063，证实了跨种族群体的可接受测量等效性。SIP - 2R显示出内部一致性（α =.94，ω =.95）和收敛效度，即SIP - 2R总分与饮酒量最大日的饮酒杯数之间呈正相关，ρ(490) =.30，p <.001。
本研究为SIP - 在患有AUD的NAI、黑人和白人无家可归成年人中的内部一致性、收敛效度和跨组测量等效性提供了支持。（PsycInfo数据库记录（c）2024美国心理学会，保留所有权利）
