This study aimed to revise the validity and reliability of the Chinese version of the Break-up Distress Scale (BDS) for college students.
A total of 669 college students with breakup experience in the last 6 months were selected using the online survey platform Questionnaire Star and randomly divided into two groups: Sample 1 for exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and Sample 2 for confirmatory factor analysis (CFA). Depression, anxiety, and sleep subscales of the DSM-5 Self-Rated Level 1 Cross-Cutting Symptom Measure-Adult were used as criterion tools.
The EFA supported the one-dimensional model of the original scale. The CFA showed that the model structure fit well (χ/ = 1.792, = 0.935, = 0.915, = 0.958, = 0.048). of the BDS was 0.964, and the total score of the scale was significantly and positively correlated with the criterion scales. The scale demonstrated strict equivalence across genders and breakup initiators. Males' scores were significantly higher than those of females, and the break-up distress scores of breakup initiators were significantly lower than those of dumped people.
The Chinese version of the BDS can be used to assess distress in Chinese college students. The scale has satisfactory reliability and validity.
本研究旨在修订大学生分手痛苦量表(BDS)中文版的效度和信度。
通过在线调查平台问卷星选取669名在过去6个月内有分手经历的大学生,并随机分为两组:样本1用于探索性因素分析(EFA),样本2用于验证性因素分析(CFA)。使用《精神疾病诊断与统计手册》第5版成人自评一级交叉症状测量量表的抑郁、焦虑和睡眠分量表作为效标工具。
探索性因素分析支持原量表的单维模型。验证性因素分析表明模型结构拟合良好(χ/=1.792,=0.935,=0.915,=0.958,=0.048)。BDS的信度为0.964,量表总分与效标量表显著正相关。该量表在性别和分手发起者方面表现出严格的等价性。男性得分显著高于女性,分手发起者的分手痛苦得分显著低于被甩者。
BDS中文版可用于评估中国大学生的痛苦程度。该量表具有令人满意的信度和效度。
