Abstract:
Objective To revise and evaluation the psychometric properties and usability of the Personal Meaning Profile Brief( PMP-B) . Methods 1256 university students were measured by PMP-B, Purpose in Life ( PIL) and the Satisfaction with Life Scale ( SWLS) ,and 234 university students were meas-ured by Meaningful Life Measure ( MLM) .321 university students were measured by PMP-B twice at differ-ent time after four weeks to analyze the reliability and validity of PMP-B. Results The items discrimination indices were all above 0.4(r=0.470-0.833,P<0.01). The internal consistency reliability of PMP-B was 0.957,the split-half reliability was 0.936 and the test-retest reliability was 0.852. Confirmatory factor analysis confirmed the hypothesized seven-factor model of PMP-B (χ2/df=3.17,GFI=0.965,AGFI=0.947,RMR=0.042,NFI=0.977,CFI=0.982,RMSEA=0.042). The criterion correlations with PIL,MLM and SWLS were 0.710,0.842 and 0.756 respectively (P<0.01). The PMP-B total score of the university students was (112.07±20.02),and female had high life meaning than male which was more positive in interpersonal rela-tionship,life belief and self-acceptance. Conclusion The reliability and validity of PMP-B are favorable,it can assess people''''s life meaning from different sources.
