Feelings About Culture Scales: Development, Factor Structure, Reliability, and Validity 对文化度量的感觉：开发、因素结构、可信度与有效度 Abstract: Although measures of cultural identity, values, and behavior exist in the multicultural psychological literature, there is currently no measure that explicitly assesses ethnic minority individuals' positive and negative affect toward culture. Therefore, we developed 2 new measures called the Feelings About Culture Scale-Ethnic Culture and Feelings About Culture Scale-Mainstream American Culture and tested their psychometric properties. In 6 studies, we piloted the measures, conducted factor analyses to clarify their factor structure, and examined reliability and validity. The factor structure revealed 2 dimensions reflecting positive and negative affect for each measure. Results provided evidence for convergent, discriminant, criterion-related, and incremental validity as well as the reliability of the scales. The Feelings About Culture Scales are the first known measures to examine both positive and negative affect toward an individual's ethnic culture and mainstream American culture. The focus on affect captures dimensions of psychological experiences that differ from cognitive and behavioral constructs often used to measure cultural orientation. These measures can serve as a valuable contribution to both research and counseling by providing insight into the nuanced affective experiences ethnic minority individuals have toward culture. 摘要：虽然在多元文化心理文学中存在着对文化认同、价值观和行为的度量方法，但目前还没有明确地评估少数民族个体对文化的积极和消极影响的度量方法.。为此，我们制定了两种新的文化度量的方法：对文化度量的感受-民族文化，对文化度量的感受-主流美国文化，并测试了他们的心理特性。在六项研究中，我们利用这些方法进行了因素分析，分析其因素结构，并研究其可信度和有效度。因子结构揭示了反映每个措施的积极和消极的影响的两个维度。结果提供了收敛、判别、相关标准和增量的有效性，以及规模的可靠性的证据。对文化度量的感受是第一个已知的措施，它用来检查对个人的民族文化和主流美国文化的正面和负面的影响。对不同于认知和行为构造的心理体验的情感捕获维度的研究，往往可以用于测量文化取向。通过提供少数民族个体对文化的洞察入微的情感体验，这些措施对研究和咨询具有很高的价值。 作者: Maffini, Cara S.; Wong, Y.
