摘要
摘要悲伤通常是一个正常的过程,但有时也会变得不正常。因此,需要心理测量学上的可靠评估来识别异常的悲伤。本研究的目的是适应悲伤障碍量表土耳其和探讨其心理测量学性质与364个样本失去亲人的成年人。验证性因子分析结果支持5项GIS的单维因子结构。土耳其版GIS显示出令人满意的内部一致性(α= 0.88, ω= 0.88)。收敛效度分析显示,GIS与创伤性悲伤(r = 0.74, p < 0.001)、抑郁(r = 0.65, p < 0.001)、焦虑(r = 0.57, p < 0.001)和压力(r = 0.63, p < 0.001)呈正相关,具有较强的效应量。研究结果表明,地理信息系统是衡量土耳其文化背景下失去亲人后与悲伤相关的功能障碍的有效工具。
Turkish adaptation and psychometric evaluation of the Grief Impairment Scale.
ABSRACTGrief usually proceeds in a normal course, but sometimes it may become dysfunctional. So psychometrically robust assessments are needed to identify abnormal grief. This study aimed to adapt the Grief Impairment Scale to Turkish and explore its psychometric properties with a sample of 364 bereaved adults. The results of the confirmatory factor analysis supported the unidimensional factor structure of the 5-item GIS. The Turkish version of the GIS demonstrated satisfactory internal consistency (α= .88, ω= .88). The convergent validity analysis revealed a positive correlation between the GIS and traumatic grief (r = .74, p < .001), depression (r = .65, p < .001), anxiety (r = .57, p < .001), and stress (r = .63, p < .001) with strong effect sizes. The study results showed that the GIS is an effective tool for measuring grief-related functional impairment in the Turkish cultural context following the loss of a loved one.
