目的:修订中文版多维考试焦虑量表(Multidimensional Test Anxiety Scale,MTAS)并考察其在我国青少年群体中的信度和效度.方法:1012名青少年完成了中文版MTAS的测评,其中502名青少年完成了考试焦虑量表(TAS)和Spence儿童焦虑问卷(SCAS-S)的测评.结果:MTAS的四因素结构(担忧、认知干扰、紧张和生理指标)在我国青少年群体中得到验证,且具有跨性别的测量不变性.模型的主要拟合指标为x2/df=7.30,RMSEA=0.079,CFI=0.939,TLI=0.926.MTAS总分及各维度得分与TAS得分、SCAS-S总分及其各维度得分均呈显著正相关.MTAS总量表及各维度的内部一致性信度在0.81~0.94之间,重测信度在0.75~0.79之间.结论:中文版MTAS具有良好的信效度以及跨性别的测量等值性,适用于中国青少年群体.
Reliability and Validity of the Chinese Version of the Multidimensional Test Anxiety Scale in Chinese Adolescents
Objective:This study aimed to revise and examine the reliability and validity of the Chinese version of the Multidimensional Test Anxiety Scale(MTAS)in a sample of Chinese adolescents.Methods:A total of 1012 adolescents completed the Chinese version of the MTAS,among which 502 adolescents also completed the Test Anxiety Scale(TAS)and the Spence Children's Anxiety Scale(SCAS-S).The reliability and validity of the scales were analyzed.Results:The four-factor structure of the MTAS(Worry,Cognitive Interference,Tension,and Physiological Indicators)was validated in the Chinese adolescent sample,and the measurement invariance across gender was achieved.The main fit indices of the model were x2/df=7.30,RMSEA=0.079,CFI=0.94,TLI=0.93.Total scores and subscale scores of the MTAS showed signifi-cant positive correlations with TAS scores,SCAS-S total scores,and subscale scores.The internal consistency reliability of the MTAS total scale and subscales ranged from 0.81 to 0.94.Conclusion:The Chinese version of the MTAS demonstrated good reliability,validity,and measurement invariance across gender in Chinese adolescents,making it suitable for use in this population.
