Chinese Version of Productive Engagement Scale:Reliability and Validity
Objective To translate the Productive Engagement Scale(PES)into Chinese,and to test its re-liability and validity.Methods The PES was translated,re-translated,cross-culturally adapted and pre-sur-veyed based on Brislin model and Guidelines for the Cross-Cultural Adaptation.The convenience sampling method was used to select 429 elderly people from communities in Zhengzhou city for the analysis of relia-bility and validity,and Rasch model analysis.Results The Chinese version of PES was unidimensional and contained 9 items.The Infit(average)value was 1.00(0.64~1.38),and the Outfit(average)value was 1.02(0.59~1.44).The item reliability of this scale was 0.98 and the separation index was 7.53.The scale-con-tent validity index was 0.89.The Cronbach's alpha coefficient was 0.92.Conclusions The Chinese version of the Productive Engagement Scale has good reliability and validity,and can be used to measure the pro-ductive engagement of the elderly people in communities.
