Abstract

This study analyzed the suitability of the Morningness-Eveningness Questionnaire (MEQ) for Spanish adolescents, focusing on reliability, structure, and age/sex invariance. 2,268 adolescents (49.1% girls, aged 12-17) participated. Four MEQ items were unsuitable, leading to a 15-item version (MEQ-15) with good reliability and fit to a bifactor model: general morningness-eveningness factor and awakening time, sleep time, and time of greatest efficiency factors. The reduced MEQ (rMEQ) also fit a one-factor model. Sex and age invariance were tenable for the general factor of MEQ-15 and rMEQ. Morningness declines during adolescence, with boys showing more morningness than girls. Both versions show good psychometric properties.

早-晚性问卷：西班牙青少年完整版和简化版的信度和析因结构。

本研究主要从信度、结构和年龄/性别不变性等方面分析了西班牙青少年“早晚性问卷”（MEQ）的适用性。2268名青少年（49.1%为女孩，12-17岁）参与了调查。有4个MEQ项目不适合，形成了一个15项版本（MEQ-15），具有良好的信度，适合于双因子模型：一般早晚因子和觉醒时间、睡眠时间和最大效率因子时间。简化后的MEQ （rMEQ）也适合单因素模型。MEQ-15和rMEQ的一般因子存在性别和年龄不变性。在青春期，早起的习惯会减少，男孩比女孩更爱早起。两种版本都显示出良好的心理测量特性。

期刊介绍： Chronobiology International is the journal of biological and medical rhythm research. It is a transdisciplinary journal focusing on biological rhythm phenomena of all life forms. The journal publishes groundbreaking articles plus authoritative review papers, short communications of work in progress, case studies, and letters to the editor, for example, on genetic and molecular mechanisms of insect, animal and human biological timekeeping, including melatonin and pineal gland rhythms. It also publishes applied topics, for example, shiftwork, chronotypes, and associated personality traits; chronobiology and chronotherapy of sleep, cardiovascular, pulmonary, psychiatric, and other medical conditions. Articles in the journal pertain to basic and applied chronobiology, and to methods, statistics, and instrumentation for biological rhythm study.
