Adolescence Stress Scale: Development and Standardization

Meena Hariharan, Meera Padhy, Sandra Roshni Monteiro et al. · Journal of Indian Association for Child and Adolescent Mental Health · 2023

Background/Aim: The objective of the paper was to develop a comprehensive “Adolescence Stress Scale” and to examine different psychometric issues in the development, initial validation, and standardization of this scale. Method: Exploratory factor analysis was conducted on the data procured from a sample of 634 (11–18 years) school-going adolescents in India. Results: An exploratory analysis provided a 10 factor structure, namely, major loss induced stress, enforcement or conflict induced stress, phobic stress, interpersonal conflict induced stress, punishment induced stress, illness and injury induced stress, performance stress, imposition induced stress, insecurity induced stress, unhealthy environment induced stress. The 10 oblique factor solutions are found to be interrelated and interdependent with good indices of internal consistency, and content validity. Conclusions: This scale development is a novel and powerful measure that taps onto various aspects of stress experienced by school-going adolescents. The scale can facilitate researchers, clinicians, and teachers to identify and quantify the significant sources of stress in adolescents in school, or clinic settings.

Standardization of «The Drego Injunctions Scale»

Kravchuk, Nadezhda Yurievna, Олейник, Нарміна · Zenodo (CERN European Organization for Nuclear Research) · 2025

This article presents the results of standardizing the Russian-language version of Drego Injunctions Scale, comprising 76 items organized into 14 scales. The sample included 261 students aged 17–56 years old. Distributional properties were assessed using descriptive statistics and the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test. Normative boundaries were established via the percentile method, which accommodates distributional skewness and varying item counts across scales while reducing the impact of outliers. For each scale, the 25th and 75th percentiles defined the lower and upper normative thresholds. Intergroup differences were examined using Pearson’s χ² test with post hoc analysis, accounting for age (generations X, Y, Z) and gender. Statistically significant gender differences emerged for the «Don’t Do» injunction, and significant differences between generations X and Z were observed for the «Don’t Grow Up», «Don’t Think», «Don’t Be Sane» and «Don’t Feel» injunctions.

Autism Rating Scale-2: Turkish Standardization Study*

Gilliam Otistik, Bozukluk Derecelendirme, Ölçeği- Türkçe et al. · 2016

This study aims at exploring the psychometric characteristics of the Turkish version of the Gilliam Autism Rating Scale-2 (TV-GARS-2) in order to standardize it into Turkish. Individuals diagnosed with autism, intellectual disability, hearing impairment and typically developing children were the participants of this standardization study (n=1191). After carrying out the Turkish translation procedure, the reliability and validity of TV-GARS-2 were examined by conducting a series of analyses such as construct validity, discriminant validity, item analysis, confirmatory factor analysis, internal consistency and test-retest reliability. Results yielded that TV-GARS-2 is a reliable and valid assessment tool that can be used with individuals with autism in Turkey.

Construction And Standardization Of Internet Addiction Scale

2023

The main aim of this study is to describe the method of construction and standardization of a tool to measure internet addiction. The researchers reviewed as much as research studies on internet addiction and explored the various components of the internet addictions. Based on the review of literature, the first draft of the internet addiction scale was developed by the researchers consisting of 12 items, further it was given to ten experts in the field. Based on their inputs, some of the statements in the scale were revised and two items were discarded. The modified scale was further processed and a pilot study was conducted among 100 participants. After reviewing and analyzing the items, the number of items were the same because all the items in the scale met the requisite criteria of item analysis and item selection. The researchers of the study also established the reliability and validity, statistical norms for internet addiction scale.

Development and Standardization of Mysore Triguna Scale

S. Shilpa, C. G. Venkatesha Murthy · Greater South Information System · 2012

The authors have developed a personality tool to assess Trigunas, that is, Sattva, Rajas, and Tamas. The Trigunas are composed of the Pancha Mahabhutas, but one or the other guna is dominant singularly or in combination. There can never be a state when one or the other Pancha Mahabhutas, and consequently the Trigunas, is absent totally. One or the other guna is in dominance and is responsible for the behavior expressed by an individual. The present authors have tried to validate the same in psychology, taking into account the descriptions as delineated in Indian tradition and classical textual scriptures. In this process, the psychometric properties of the scale are established.

DEVELOPMENT AND STANDARDIZATION OF ECOLOGICAL INTELLIGENCE SCALE

G. Nayal, Sarita Bhat · Figshare · 2014

-The present study was aimed to construct, develop and standardize Ecological Intelligence Scale (EIS). Investigators outlined the dimensions of ecological intelligence with a thorough reading of the literature and after analyzing the content framed 287 items related to the determined dimensions. After first tryout and seeking the opinion of the experts some of the items were reframed and deleted. After second tryout on a sample of 400 students of Kumaun University, S.S.J. Campus Almora 120 items were retained in the questionnaire. Reliability of the questionnaire was determined by split half method and that came out to be 0.95 that determines that EIS is a highly reliable tool. Due procedure was followed to ensure face validity, content validity and item validity of the tool.
