Abstract

ABSTRACT The paper aims to describe the development of the Children Spiritual Intelligence Scale (CSIS), focusing on the stage of primary validation of the scale. Based on the five components of the theoretical model (Creation and awareness of personal meaning, Self-understanding, Mastery of self-control, Awareness of personal authenticity and uniqueness, and Social mastery), a 63-item scale with validated content was developed to measure children’s spiritual intelligence. The validation sample consisted of 200 pupils from grades 1–4 representing comprehensive education schools situated in different regions of Latvia. The exploration resulted with the psychometric properties of CSIS, showing the item difficulty and discrimination indices of items, interpretation of the factorial structure and internal reliability of the scale. The final set of 23 CSIS items, measuring children spiritual intelligence in a framework of a one-factor model with four included subcomponents, showed acceptable psychometric properties, enabling to pursue the next steps of scale development.

拉脱维亚小学生儿童精神智力量表的初步验证

摘要:本文旨在描述儿童精神智力量表(CSIS)的开发过程，重点介绍该量表的初步验证阶段。以理论模型的五个组成部分(个人意义的创造与意识、自我理解、自我控制的掌握、个人真实性与独特性的意识、社会掌握)为基础，编制了一个包含63个条目的儿童精神智力量表，并对其内容进行了验证。验证样本包括200名来自1-4年级的学生，代表位于拉脱维亚不同地区的综合教育学校。探讨了CSIS的心理测量特性，显示了项目的难度和辨别指标，解释了量表的析因结构和内部信度。最后一套23个CSIS项目，在一个包含四个子组件的单因素模型框架中测量儿童的精神智力，显示出可接受的心理测量特性，使量表的下一步开发成为可能。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
