Abstract

This study examined the factor structure and measurement invariance of the competence, confidence, connection, character, and caring (Five Cs) model using the Positive Youth Development (PYD) survey’s short (34 items) and very short versions (17 items). We also tested its criterion-related validity with life satisfaction, flourishing, transcendence, perceived societal and school statuses, and COVID-19 anxiety. In the Philippines, 1,116 senior high school students completed this survey (age: M = 17.61 years; SD = 0.91). The results support the bi-factor model for both formats, which showed varying levels of measurement invariance across gender, SES, and school type. Controlling for the general PYD construct, character and caring (i.e., socio-emotional Cs) showed negative latent factor correlations with competence and confidence (i.e., efficacy-related Cs). Almost all PYD dimensions exhibited expected associations with the criterion-related measures. As the very short version showed low reliability for competence and character, our results support using the 34-item short scale to measure the general and individual dimensions of adolescent thriving.

2019冠状病毒病大流行期间菲律宾青年积极发展的心理测量效度和测量不变性

摘要本研究采用积极青年发展问卷(PYD)的短问卷(34项)和极短问卷(17项)，考察了胜任力、信心、联系、性格、关怀(5c)模型的因素结构和测量不变异性。我们还测试了其与生活满意度、繁荣、超越、感知的社会和学校地位以及COVID-19焦虑相关的标准效度。在菲律宾，有1116名高中生完成了这项调查(年龄:M = 17.61岁;Sd = 0.91)。结果支持两种格式的双因素模型，该模型显示了不同性别、社会经济地位和学校类型的测量不变性水平。控制一般PYD结构，性格和关怀(即社会情绪c)与能力和信心(即效能相关c)呈负相关的潜在因素。几乎所有PYD维度都表现出与标准相关措施的预期关联。由于短量表在能力和性格方面的信度较低，我们的研究结果支持使用34项短量表来测量青少年成长的总体和个体维度。

期刊介绍： The focus of this multidisciplinary journal is the synthesis of research and application to promote positive development across the life span and across the globe. The journal publishes research that generates descriptive and explanatory knowledge about dynamic and reciprocal person-environment interactions essential to informed public dialogue, social policy, and preventive and development optimizing interventions. This includes research relevant to the development of individuals and social systems across the life span -- including the wide range of familial, biological, societal, cultural, physical, ecological, political and historical settings of human development.
