Objective To translate the Family Empowerment Scale for Parents with Toddlers(FES-P)from Japanese into Chinese,and to test its reliability and validity.Methods After obtaining authorization from the original author,a Chinese version of FES-P was formed through translation,back translation,integration,cultural adaptation and pilot study according to Brislin translation model,then it was used to investigate 539 parents with toddlers to test its reliability and validity.Results The Chinese version of FES-P consisted of 24 items in 5 dimensions,family relationship,parenting self-efficacy,connection with the local community,parental role accomplishment,cognition and effective use of parenting services.The I-CVI and S-CVI of the Chinese version were 0.857-1.000 and 0.907 respectively.Five common factors were extracted through exploratory factor analysis,the cumulative va-riance contribution rate of which was 74.956％.The results of confirmatory factor analysis indicated that:X2/df=1.486,RMSEA=0.048,NFI=0.941,IFI=0.980,TLI=0.977,CFI=0.980,GF I=0.869,AGFI=0.838,and the overall model fit was acceptable.The Cronbach's α coefficient of the scale was 0.946,and the Cronbach's α coefficient of each dimension was 0.908-0.949,its split-half reliability was 0.801.Conclusion The Chinese version of FES-P has good reliability and validity,so it can be used as an assessment tool for empowerment screening of family with toddlers.
