Abstract

The aim of this paper is to present the Spanish adaptation of the “Life Values Questionnaire” (VLQ; Wilson et al., 2010), providing data on its psychometric properties. The questionnaire was administrated to 531 participants aged between 18 and 70 years (M= 28.73), 70% of whom were female university students. The exploratory factor analysis showed three main factors: community, closeness and obligations, whose internal consistency levels were .70, .71 and .68, respectively, while the total score was .71, which was similar to that of the English original version. In terms of the concurrent validity, the VLQ showed moderate correlations with the “Personal Values Questionnaire” (Schwartz, 1992) (r= .47), and with the “Life Snapshot Questionnaire (Ruiz-García et al., 2021; Tsai et al., 2023) (r= .65). The usefulness of the VLQ for assessing and tracking key processes involved in clinical change, as well as for enhancing and assessing personal values intimately related to quality of life, meaning in life and community well-being is discussed.

西班牙人口价值生活问卷(VLQ)的验证和心理测量特性

本文的目的是提出西班牙语版的“生命价值问卷”(VLQ;Wilson et al.， 2010)，提供了其心理测量特性的数据。调查对象531人，年龄在18 ~ 70岁之间(M= 28.73)，其中70%为女大学生。探索性因子分析显示，社区、亲密和义务三个主要因素的内部一致性水平分别为0.70、0.71和0.68，总分为0.71，与英文原版相近。在并发效度方面，VLQ与“个人价值观问卷”(Schwartz, 1992) (r= 0.47)、与“生活快照问卷”(Ruiz-García et al.， 2021;Tsai et al.， 2023) (r= 0.65)。讨论了VLQ在评估和跟踪临床变化的关键过程以及增强和评估与生活质量、生活意义和社区福祉密切相关的个人价值方面的有用性。
