摘要
在印度文化中,关于成功衰老的老年学研究受到的关注最少,可能是因为缺乏心理测量工具来评估讲印地语的老年人。本研究对流行的成功老龄化量表(SAS)进行了印地语适应和心理计量学验证。在翻译和语言适应之后,使用分层随机抽样技术从136名年长的印度成年人中获得了原始数据。定量数据收集于印度语版SAS以及WHO生活质量量表(Quality of Life-BREF)、自评身体健康(SRPH)、一般健康问卷(GHQ-12)和抑郁量表(DASS),用于心理测量验证目的。印度语版SAS具有良好的内部一致性(r = 0.94)。印地语版SAS与标准变量显著相关,表明量表具有显著的结构效度(收敛和发散)。探索性因素分析确定了两个潜在因素:参与和衰老的功能方面。
Hindi Adaptation and Psychometric Validation of the Successful Aging Scale (SAS).
Gerontological research on successful aging has received the least attention in Indian culture, possibly due to a lack of psychometric tools to assess it among Hindi-speaking older adults. This study conducted the Hindi adaptation and psychometric validation of the popular Successful Aging Scale (SAS). Following translation and language adaptation, primary data was obtained from 136 older Indian adults drawn using a stratified random sampling technique. Quantitative data was collected on the Hindi-adapted version of the SAS along with WHO Quality of Life-BREF, Self-rated physical health (SRPH), General health questionnaire (GHQ-12), and Depression Scale (of DASS) for psychometric validation purposes. The Hindi version of SAS showed excellent internal consistency (r = 0.94). The significant correlation between the Hindi version of SAS and the criterion variables indicated significant construct validity (convergent and divergent) of the scale. The exploratory factor analysis identified two underlying factors: the engagement and the functioning aspect of aging.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Applied Gerontology (JAG) is the official journal of the Southern Gerontological Society. It features articles that focus on research applications intended to improve the quality of life of older persons or to enhance our understanding of age-related issues that will eventually lead to such outcomes. We construe application broadly and encourage contributions across a range of applications toward those foci, including interventions, methodology, policy, and theory. Manuscripts from all disciplines represented in gerontology are welcome. Because the circulation and intended audience of JAG is global, contributions from international authors are encouraged.
