doi:10.12139/j.1672-0628.2023.02.012

Abstract

Abstract: This study aimed to explore preschool children’s shame structure and develop a teacher’s rating scale of shame development in children aged 3~6. Based on the literature analysis, open-ended questionnaire coding determined the scale dimensions and developed the initial scale. In addition, the formal scale was formed through item analysis, exploratory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis. The final scale contained 2 dimensions, that is, the “violation shame” and the “failure shame”. The final scale was tested for the reliability. The results showed that the scale had high split half reliability, internal consistency reliability, rater consistency reliability and retest reliability. The construct validity of the scale was tested by a multitrait-multimethod matrix, showing that the construct validity of the scale was good. In all, the Teacher Rating Scale for Shame Development in 3~6 Years Old Children meets psychometric criteria and can be used as a valid tool to measure shame in young children.

Key words: children, shame, scale development

摘要： 探索幼儿羞耻结构，编制3～6岁幼儿羞耻发展教师评定量表。经文献分析和开放式问卷编码，编制幼儿羞耻发展教师评定初始量表。通过项目分析、探索性因素分析、验证性因素分析修订初始量表，最终正式量表包含违规羞耻和失败羞耻两个维度。对正式量表进行信度检验，结果发现量表具有较高的分半信度、内部一致性信度、评分者一致性信度和重测信度。构建多质多法矩阵检验量表的构念效度，结果发现量表的构念效度良好。该量表达到心理测量学要求，可以作为测量幼儿羞耻的有效工具。
