Abstract

The purpose of this study was to explore the psychometric properties of an Arabic translation of the Gifted Rating Scales–School Form (GRS-S) on a national sample of 907 students from Cycle 1 (Grades 1 to 4) and Cycle 2 (Grades 5 to 10) from five governorates in Oman (Muscat, Dhofar, Al-Batinah North, Al-Sharqiyah South, and Al-Dhahira). The replicability of the GRS-S factor structure was examined using the confirmatory factor analysis (CFA). The CFA results supported the six-factor solution of the original scale. Also, Cronbach’s alpha reliability coefficients of the GRS-S subscales ranged from .91 to .96. The criterion-related validity for the GRS-S scores was supported as statistically significant correlations were found between the GRS-S subscales and the Gifted and Talented Rating Scales–Second edition (GATES-2), students’ academic achievement, and the scores of the Profile of Creative Abilities (PCA) rating scale. The metric invariance results revealed that the six-factor structure of GRS-S was equally applicable across gender and grade levels.

资优评定量表-学校表格阿拉伯文版本的验证

本研究的目的是在阿曼五个省（马斯喀特、佐法尔、北巴提纳、南沙奇亚和达希拉）的907名第一周期（1至4年级）和第二周期（5至10年级）学生的全国样本中，探索天才评定量表（GRS-S）阿拉伯语翻译的心理测量特性。GRS-S因子结构的可复制性采用验证性因子分析（CFA）进行检验。CFA的结果支持了原始量表的六因子解。此外，GRS-s分量表的Cronbachα信度系数在.91到.96之间。GRS-S评分的标准相关有效性得到了支持，因为GRS-S分量表与天才和天才评定量表第二版（GATES-2）、学生的学业成绩和创造能力档案（PCA）评定量表的得分之间存在统计学上显著的相关性。度量不变性结果表明，GRS-S的六因子结构在性别和年级水平上同样适用。

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.
