Abstract

The digital classroom has become a crucible for complex emotional stressors such as burnout, boredom, and anxiety. The short-form of foreign language classroom burnout, boredom, and anxiety scales (S-FLCBUS, S-FLCBS, and S-FLCAS) have been widely used. However, few studies have assessed the validity and reliability of S-FLCBUS, S-FLCBS, and S-FLCAS in the context of learning Chinese as a foreign language (CFL), especially in online learning environment. To address this issue, a sample of n = 662 CFL learners in online classes was utilized in the validation efforts, including multiple rounds of exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis, the establishment of convergent, discriminant, and criterion-related validity tests, and structural equation modeling. The findings revealed an adjusted 8-item two-factor S-FLCBUS and a 6-item unidimensional S-FLCAS and supported the 8-item unidimensional S-FLCBS, demonstrating excellent reliability and validity. This research provides a replicable template for future psychometric-scale development in second language acquisition, contributing to emotion research in diverse settings.

验证在线中文学习中外语课堂倦怠、无聊和焦虑的简式量表

数字化课堂已成为倦怠、无聊和焦虑等复杂情绪压力的熔炉。短式外语课堂倦怠、无聊和焦虑量表（S-FLCBUS、S-FLCBS 和 S-FLCAS）已被广泛使用。然而，很少有研究对 S-FLCBUS、S-FLCBS 和 S-FLCAS 在对外汉语学习环境下，尤其是在线学习环境下的效度和信度进行评估。为了解决这个问题，我们使用了一个 n = 662 的在线课堂对外汉语学习者样本进行验证，包括多轮探索性和确认性因素分析，建立收敛效度、判别效度和标准效度检验，以及结构方程模型。研究结果表明，经过调整的 8 个项目的双因素 S-FLCBUS 和 6 个项目的单维 S-FLCAS，支持 8 个项目的单维 S-FLCBS，显示了出色的信度和效度。这项研究为未来第二语言习得心理测量量表的开发提供了一个可复制的模板，有助于在不同环境中开展情感研究。
