Abstract

Background: Self-insights focused on the coping process are implicated in the refinement of capacities for resilience. To advance this research, we must identify key coping self-insights and develop a concise measurement tool.

Objective: The purpose of this paper is to develop evidence for the construct dimensionality and validity of a measure of coping self-insight.

Methods: Items measuring 13 coping self-insight dimensions were generated via consultation with theoretical work, subject matter experts, and pre-testing items for clarity. Thereafter, the dimensionality of items was assessed with undergraduate students (N = 232) and an online sample (N = 800) via exploratory and confirmatory analyses. Finally, a multi-trait, multi-method approach was used to test discriminant validity in a further sample of students (N = 228).

Results: The initial item list was reduced to five key dimensions that balanced data-driven and conceptual considerations. Confirmatory Factor Analysis revealed moderate-to-strong correlations (r = .47-.80) among dimensions. We also demonstrated evidence of internal reliability, convergent, criterion, and discriminant validity. Invariance tests for sub-groups of interest (e.g., sex, sample type) frequently demonstrated metric or scalar invariance, except for age sub-groups.

Conclusions: Findings offer a starting point regarding the types of coping self-insights important for the emergence of resilience and a validated tool for future research.

成人应对自我洞察力量表：开发与初步心理测量特性。

背景:关注应对过程的自我洞见与心理弹性能力的完善有关。为了推进这一研究，我们必须确定关键的应对自我洞察，并开发一个简洁的测量工具。目的:为应对自我洞察量表的构建维度和效度提供证据。方法:通过咨询理论工作、主题专家和预测清晰性项目，生成13个应对自我洞察维度的测量项目。之后，通过探索性和验证性分析，对本科生(N = 232)和在线样本(N = 800)进行了项目维度评估。最后，采用多特征、多方法的方法在进一步的学生样本(N = 228)中检验区别效度。结果:最初的项目列表被减少到五个关键维度，平衡了数据驱动和概念考虑。验证性因子分析显示各维度之间存在中强相关性(r = 0.47 - 0.80)。我们也证明了内部信度、收敛效度、标准效度和判别效度的证据。对感兴趣的子组(例如，性别、样本类型)的不变性检验经常显示度量或标量不变性，年龄子组除外。结论:研究结果为应对自我洞察的类型提供了一个起点，对弹性的出现很重要，并为未来的研究提供了一个有效的工具。

期刊介绍： This journal provides a forum for scientific, theoretically important, and clinically significant research reports and conceptual contributions. It deals with experimental and field studies on anxiety dimensions and stress and coping processes, but also with related topics such as the antecedents and consequences of stress and emotion. We also encourage submissions contributing to the understanding of the relationship between psychological and physiological processes, specific for stress and anxiety. Manuscripts should report novel findings that are of interest to an international readership. While the journal is open to a diversity of articles.
