Short Screener of the Cyber Aggression in Relationships Scale: Construct Validity and Reliability Cross-Cultural Samples.
The Cyber Aggression in Relationships Scale (CARS) is a widely used and validated measure of adult cyber intimate partner violence (C-IPV). The current study aimed to create a short screener of CARS (CARS-SS) through testing cross-cultural samples. To do so, we examined the rate of chosen items of the original scale on five pre-existing study samples: we then procured and tested the construct validity and reliability of the CARS-SS among two study samples (United States and Israel). Results of an item factor analysis confirmed one factor for both perpetration and victimization and analyses suggested good internal reliability. Overall, the CARS-SS was associated with a measure of in-person intimate partner violence. Findings suggest the CARS-SS may be a helpful measure of C-IPV among clinical and community samples of young adults.
期刊介绍：
Assessment publishes articles in the domain of applied clinical assessment. The emphasis of this journal is on publication of information of relevance to the use of assessment measures, including test development, validation, and interpretation practices. The scope of the journal includes research that can inform assessment practices in mental health, forensic, medical, and other applied settings. Papers that focus on the assessment of cognitive and neuropsychological functioning, personality, and psychopathology are invited. Most papers published in Assessment report the results of original empirical research, however integrative review articles and scholarly case studies will also be considered.
