Abstract:
Objective:To do confirmatory factor analysis to prove structure validity of Mental Health Scale for Primary School Students.Method:Data was collected from 2030 primary school students and was analyzed by LISREL 8.0 program. Result:The subscales of Mental Health Scale for Primary School Students had good structure validity, the sample data fit for the hypothesized model. Except that for Interpersonal Relationship subscale, the indexes of other subscales (Learning subscale, self subscale and adjustment subscale) fit for the model with all coefficients over 0.9, these indexes were GFI?AGFI?NFI?NNFI?CFI?IFI. For the total scale, four latent variables had loaded to the observed items significantly, the whole scale had perfect fit between the observed data and hypothesized structure.Conclusion:Mental Health Scale for Primary School Students has good psychometric quality and can be used for Chinese primary school pupils.
