Abstract: To develop the problematic mobile phone use scale short version (PMPUS-S) and very short version (PMPUS-VS), data were collected from college and middle-school students in Tianjin city. Based on exploratory factor analysis, the PMPUS-S and PMPUS-VS were developed from the item pool of Problematic Mobile Phone Use Questionnaires. Measurement invariance was tested based on the multi-group confirmatory factor analysis, and the reliability and validity were assessed. The results showed that the PMPUS-S contained 8 items (4 items under each dimension) and 2 dimensions (withdrawal behavior and nomophobia), while the PMPUS-VS contained all 4 items in the withdrawal behavior dimension. The PMPUS-S and PMPUS-VS exhibited strong reliability and validity. Moreover, the PMPUS-S had strict invariance across age groups and genders, while the PMPUS-VS had strict invariance across age groups and did not meet measurement invariance across gender. The results suggest that PMPUS-S and PMPUS-VS meet the requirements of psychometric characteristics and can be used to evaluate the problematic mobile phone usage behavior of individuals.

Key words: Problematic Mobile Phone Use Scale, validity, reliability, measurement invariance

摘要: 开发简版(PMPUS-S)和极简版(PMPUS-VS)问题性手机使用量表。对天津某高校和某中学的学生进行施测,基于探索性因素分析简化问题性手机使用题库中的题目从而形成量表,基于多组验证性因素分析检验测量不变性,并评估量表的信效度。结果发现,PMPUS-S包含脱离表现和无手机恐惧2个维度共8个项目,PMPUS-VS包含脱离表现维度中的全部4个项目。PMPUS-S和PMPUS-VS具有良好的信效度。经检验,PMPUS-S具有跨年龄组、跨性别的严格等值性,PMPUS-VS具有跨年龄组的严格等值,不满足跨性别等值性。结果表明,简版和极简版问题性手机使用量表各项指标均满足心理测量学要求,可作为评估个体的问题性手机使用行为的工具。
