Abstract

ABSTRACT This study aimed to translate the modified Group Environment Questionnaire (GEQ) and the Youth Sport Environment Questionnaire (YSEQ) into Norwegian, examine the factor structure and reliability of the scales through independent clusters model confirmatory factor analysis (ICM-CFA) and exploratory structural equation modeling (ESEM), and examine differential item functioning (DIF) as a function of sex. Three-hundred-and-thirty-three athletes (M(SD)age = 18.7(2.60) years; 33% females) completed the GEQ. Three-hundred-and-three athletes (M(SD)age = 15.0(1.48) years; 26% females) completed the YSEQ. Results indicated acceptable fit indices for a four-factor, a second-order two-factor (task and social), and a second order one-factor ESEM model for the GEQ. Cross-loadings and high latent factor correlations are issues in need of attention. The study supported the structural validity and reliability of the Norwegian YSEQ, with no major differences between the ICM-CFA and ESEM. No evidence of DIF as a function of sex was identified in either of the scales.

挪威版修订团体环境问卷和青少年运动环境问卷的心理测量学评价

摘要本研究旨在将修改后的群体环境问卷(GEQ)和青少年体育环境问卷(YSEQ)翻译成挪威语，通过独立聚类模型验证性因子分析(ICM-CFA)和探索性结构方程模型(ESEM)检验量表的因子结构和信度，并检验差异项目功能(DIF)作为性别的函数。33名运动员(M(SD)年龄= 18.7(2.60)岁;33%的女性)完成了GEQ。33名运动员(M(SD)年龄= 15.0(1.48)岁;26%女性)完成了YSEQ。结果表明，四因素、二阶两因素(任务和社会)和二阶单因素ESEM模型对GEQ具有可接受的拟合指数。交叉负荷和高潜在因子相关性是需要注意的问题。该研究支持挪威YSEQ的结构效度和可靠性，ICM-CFA和ESEM之间没有重大差异。在这两种量表中都没有发现DIF与性别有关的证据。

期刊介绍： The scope of Measurement in Physical Education and Exercise Science (MPEES) covers original measurement research, special issues, and tutorials within six substantive disciplines of physical education and exercise science. Six of the seven sections of MPEES define the substantive disciplines within the purview of the original research to be published in the journal: Exercise Science, Physical Activity, Physical Education Pedagogy, Psychology, Research Methodology and Statistics, and Sport Management and Administration. The seventh section of MPEES, Tutorial and Teacher’s Toolbox, serves to provide an outlet for review and/or didactic manuscripts to be published in the journal. Special issues provide an avenue for a coherent set of manuscripts (e.g., four to five) to collectively focus in-depth on an important and timely measurement-related issue within the scope of MPEES. The primary aim of MPEES is to publish high-impact manuscripts, most of which will focus on original research, that fit within the scope of the journal.
