Two studies examined the internal consistency and test-retest reliability of the Adolescent Leisure Interest Profile (ALIP), an 86-item measure of adolescent leisure activity interest, leisure participation, and feelings about leisure. In addition, leisure activity interests and participation of adolescents with and without disabilities were described, and the ability of the ALIP to discriminate among four groups of adolescents was examined.
After preliminary item development, two separate reliability studies of the ALIP were conducted. The ALIP was administered twice to 88 adolescents with psychiatric, learning, and physical disabilities and to 28 adolescents without disabilities. In both studies, the second administration took place from 7 days to 14 days after the first. In addition, data from the first administration in both reliability studies were combined to examine the ability of the ALIP to discriminate among adolescents with and without disabilities.
Using Cronbach's alpha to estimate internal consistency and Pearson product-moment correlations to examine test-retest reliability, acceptable levels of reliability for total scores derived from the ALIP were found in both studies. Virtually all test-retest reliability coefficients for the six total scores exceeded .60 for all participants except those with learning disabilities. Internal consistency estimates for a total score of overall level of interest in the activities exceeded .90 in both studies. Although there were few differences among the four study groups in terms of activity leisure interests or participation, there was some evidence that total scores on the ALIP can discriminate among adolescents with and without disabilities.
The ALIP appears to have good reliability and may be useful as a clinical and research tool.
两项研究检验了青少年休闲兴趣量表(ALIP)的内部一致性和重测信度,该量表包含86个项目,用于测量青少年的休闲活动兴趣、休闲参与度以及对休闲的感受。此外,还描述了有残疾和无残疾青少年的休闲活动兴趣及参与情况,并检验了ALIP区分四组青少年的能力。
在初步进行项目开发后,对ALIP进行了两项独立的信度研究。对88名患有精神疾病、学习障碍和身体残疾的青少年以及28名无残疾的青少年进行了两次ALIP测试。在两项研究中,第二次测试均在第一次测试后的7天至14天内进行。此外,将两项信度研究中第一次测试的数据合并,以检验ALIP区分有残疾和无残疾青少年的能力。
使用克朗巴哈系数估计内部一致性,并使用皮尔逊积差相关系数检验重测信度,两项研究均发现ALIP总分的信度水平可接受。除学习障碍患者外,所有参与者六个总分的几乎所有重测信度系数均超过0.60。两项研究中,活动总体兴趣水平总分的内部一致性估计均超过0.90。尽管四个研究组在活动休闲兴趣或参与度方面差异不大,但有证据表明,ALIP总分可以区分有残疾和无残疾的青少年。
ALIP似乎具有良好的信度,可能作为一种临床和研究工具。
