Abstract

Adult playfulness describes the personality of the quick initiation and strong intensity of enjoyable experiences coupled with the frequency of engaging in playful behaviors. In addition to examining the reliability and validity of the Short Measure for Adult Playfulness (SMAP), we compared the psychometric properties of the SMAP across (a) 4- and 7-point answer formats; (b) German and English language versions; and (c) gender. The SMAP and criterion validity measures were distributed across three independent samples from Canada (Ntotal = 1,177) and a German sample (N = 660). Results supported a unidimensional solution with strong factor loadings for all items (>.50 across all samples) and high test-retest reliability (r = .67, BF10>100). In item response theory analyses, high discrimination parameters were found across the latent continuum. Although both the four-point and seven-point Likert scale versions showed robust item properties, the seven-point Likert scale version yielded more precise measurement of higher playfulness (θ > 1.50). No significant differential item functioning was located across gender or language. Finally, results supported external construct validity via associations with broad personality traits, humor, and orientations to happiness. The present investigation provides support for the reliability and validity of the English SMAP for concise adult playfulness measurement.

重新审视英语成人游戏性简短测量法（SMAP）：可靠性、有效性和跨文化比较调查。

成人游戏性描述的是快速启动和强烈享受体验的个性，以及参与游戏行为的频率。除了研究成人游戏性简短测量法（SMAP）的信度和效度外，我们还比较了SMAP在以下方面的心理测量特性：(a) 4分和7分答案格式；(b) 德语和英语版本；(c) 性别。SMAP 和标准效度测量结果分布于三个独立样本，分别来自加拿大（总人数 = 1,177 人）和一个德国样本（总人数 = 660 人）。结果表明，SMAP 是一个单维度的解决方案，所有项目的因子载荷都很高（在所有样本中都大于 0.50），测试-再测可靠性也很高（r = 0.67，BF10>100）。在项目反应理论分析中，发现整个潜在连续体具有较高的区分度参数。尽管四分和七分李克特量表版本都显示出了稳健的项目属性，但七分李克特量表版本能更精确地测量较高的游戏性（θ > 1.50）。不同性别和语言的项目功能没有明显差异。最后，研究结果通过与广泛的人格特质、幽默感和快乐取向的关联支持了外部建构效度。本调查为英语 SMAP 用于简明成人游戏性测量的可靠性和有效性提供了支持。

期刊介绍： The Journal of Personality Assessment (JPA) primarily publishes articles dealing with the development, evaluation, refinement, and application of personality assessment methods. Desirable articles address empirical, theoretical, instructional, or professional aspects of using psychological tests, interview data, or the applied clinical assessment process. They also advance the measurement, description, or understanding of personality, psychopathology, and human behavior. JPA is broadly concerned with developing and using personality assessment methods in clinical, counseling, forensic, and health psychology settings; with the assessment process in applied clinical practice; with the assessment of people of all ages and cultures; and with both normal and abnormal personality functioning.
