Abstract:
Objective: To revise the Social Interaction Anxiety Scale (SIAS) and Social Phobia Scale (SPS), which are self-related social anxiety measurements developed by Mattick and his colleagues. Methods: Data were collected from a sample of more than 1,300 college students of Beijing and analyzed by Confirmatory Factor Analysis, reliability test and validity test. Results: The results of Confirmatory Factor Analysis showed that the revised SIAS and SPS were single-factor construct and had good construct validities. The Cronbach's ? coefficient of the SIAS scale was 0.874, the reliability coefficient of split-half was 0.862, and the test-retest stability coefficient was 0.863. The Cronbach's ? coefficient of the SPS scale was 0.904, the reliability coefficient of split-half was 0.865, and the test-retest stability coefficient was 0.849. The correlation between total score of SIAS and that of Fear of Negative Evaluation Scale(FNE) was 0.514, and the correlation between total score of SPS and that of FNE was 0.479. Conclusion: The revised scales of SIAS and SPS has good psychometric quality and can be used in Chinese college students.
