Validity and reliability of the Chinese version of Self-Compassion Scale in patients with eating disorders
Objective:The Self-Compassion Scale(SCS)is used to evaluate self-compassion in general popu-lation.The study was designed to evaluate the validity and reliability of the Chinese version of SCS in patients with eating disorders.Methods:Ten experts in the related disciplines completed the content validity evaluation.A total of 136 patients who met the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders,Fifth Edition(DSM-5)eating dis-order diagnostic criteria were surveyed with SCS to evaluate structural validity.Using the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale(SES),Satisfaction with Life Scale(SWLS),and Eating Disorder Examination Questionnaire 6.0(EDE-Q 6.0)as gold criterion,the criterion validity of SCS was measured.Twenty patients were selected for retesting to e-valuate test-retest reliability.Results:The item-level content validity index(I-CVI)of each item was between 0.70 and 1.00,and the average scale-level content validity index(S-CVI/Ave)was 0.96,indicating good content validi-ty.Factor analysis indicated a good fit for the six-factor model with reasonable factor loadings:x2/df=1.70,RM-SEA=0.07,CFI=0.92,TLI=0.91.The Chinese version of the SCS had an ICC of 0.31 with both SES and SWLS,and a negative correlation with EDE-Q 6.0 scores(r=-0.32).The test-retest reliability of the scale was 0.80.Conclusion:The Chinese version of the SCS has moderate validity and high reliability in patients with eating disorders,and can provide a clinical measure tool for psychological assessment in the Chinese population with eating disorders.
