Research on loneliness has been hindered by the lack of a simple and reliable assessment technique. The development of the UCLA Loneliness Scale, a short, 20-item general measure of loneliness is reported. The measure has high internal consistency (coefficient alpha = .96) and a test-retest correlation over a two-month period of .73. Concurrent and preliminary construct validity are indicated by correlations with self-reports of current loneliness and related emotional states, and by volunteering for a "loneliness clinic."
由于缺乏一种简单可靠的评估技术，对孤独感的研究受到了阻碍。本文报告了加州大学洛杉矶分校孤独感量表的编制情况，这是一种简短的、包含20个条目的孤独感通用测量工具。该量表具有较高的内部一致性（α系数 = 0.96），在两个月的时间内重测信度为0.73。通过与当前孤独感及相关情绪状态的自我报告之间的相关性，以及通过参与“孤独诊所”的志愿活动，表明了该量表具有同时效度和初步的结构效度。
