Abstract:
To revise the Attitudes Toward Singlehood Scale(ATSS)and test its reliability, validity and
measurement invariance across gender in Chinese college students. A total of 881 college students were
tested. The results showed that the revised Chinese version of the Attitudes Toward Singlehood Scale was
consistent with the original scale, and the 3-factor model of ATSS has acceptable construct validity . The
score of this scale was positively correlated with the score of Satisfaction With Life Scale and negatively
correlated with the score of Short-form of the UCLA Loneliness Scale. Both Cronbach’s coeffcients and
retest reliability coefficients after 2 weeks of ATSS were in conformity with standards of the psychometrics.
The 3-factor model satisfied the cross-gender strong equivalence, and had different measurement errors
between male and female students. In conclusion, the Chinese version of the Attitudes Toward Singlehood
Scale has good reliability and validity in Chinese college students, which can be used as an effective tool to
test the attitude toward singlehood in Chinese college students.
修订中文版单身态度量表(ATSS),并在大学生群体中考察其信度、效度和跨性别等值性。选取881名大学生进行施测。结果发现:修订后的中文版单身态度量表与原量表一致,三因素模型拟合良好;该量表得分与生活满意度量表得分呈正相关,与简式孤独感量表得分负相关;内部一致性系数和两周后的重测信度均达到心理测量学标准;三因素模型满足跨性别强等值,在男女生之间具有不同的测量误差。综上所述,中文版单身态度量表在中国大学生群体中具有良好的信效度,可以作为单身态度研究的有效工具。
