摘要

个人对结构的需求(PNS)量表评估的是个人寻求清晰、结构化的方式来了解环境并与之互动的倾向。本研究的主要目的是将 PNS 量表改编成西班牙语,并评估其心理测量特性。目前使用的 PNS 量表有两个版本,它们在维度数量(1 对 2)和项目数量(12 对 11;因为其中一个版本不包括项目 5)上各不相同。因此,本研究的另一个目的是比较 PNS 量表的两个现有版本。这一比较旨在解决关于是否纳入项目 5 以及 PNS 量表维度数量的争论。研究收集了 735 个样本。首先,通过将探索性分析和确认性分析相结合的方法,我们发现有证据表明该量表由两个相关但可区分的因素组成:对结构的渴望和对缺乏结构的反应。这些子量表的得分显示出可接受的内部一致性和测试-再测试可靠性。有证据表明,内部结构在不同的社会人口变量(如性别和年龄)之间是不变的。此外,还通过研究与其他相关测量的关系分析了效度证据。结果表明,可以在不降低分数效度或信度的情况下排除项目 5,这也支持了之前的文献研究。总之,PNS 量表在西班牙文中的改编和验证结果令人满意,建议在西班牙文中使用。

Navigating Ambiguity: Adapting and Validating the Personal Need for Structure Scale in Spanish.

The Personal Need for Structure (PNS) scale assesses individuals' tendency to seek out clarity and structured ways of understanding and interacting with their environment. The main aim of this study was to adapt the PNS scale to Spanish and assess its psychometric properties. There are two versions of the PNS scale being used, which vary in the number of dimensions (1 vs. 2), and in the number of items (12 vs. 11; because one version excludes Item 5). Therefore, an additional aim of this study was to compare the two existing versions of the PNS scale. This comparison aimed to address the debate regarding the inclusion of Item 5, and the number of dimensions that comprise the PNS scale. A sample of 735 individuals was collected. First, through an approach combining exploratory and confirmatory analyses, evidence was found in favor of the scale being composed of two related but distinguishable factors: Desire for Structure and Response to the Lack of Structure. Scores on these subscales showed acceptable internal consistency and test-retest reliability. Evidence supporting the invariance of the internal structure across sociodemographic variables such as gender and age was found. Validity evidence was also analyzed by examining the relationships with other relevant measures. The results indicated that Item 5 can be excluded without reducing scores validity or reliability, which supports preceding research in the literature. In conclusion, the PNS scale was satisfactorily adapted to and validated in Spanish and its use in this context is recommended.
