Objective:To develop the College Students'Susceptibility to Telecom Network Fraud Question-naire(CSSTNFQ)and test its validity and reliability.Methods:Combined with the deep interviews and literature a-nalysis,the structural model of college students'susceptibility to telecom network fraud was constructed and the pre-liminary questionnaire was compiled.Totally 429 college students were selected for item analysis and exploratory factor analysis.Totally 845 college students were selected for confirmatory factor analysis and internal consistency reliability test,and 62 of them were retested two weeks later.In addition,375 college students were selected for cri-terion related validity test.The Vulnerability to Fraud Scale(VFS)was used to test the validity of the criterion.Results:The questionnaire contained 25 items,including 6 dimensions(internet usage habits,internet trust propensity,information processing mode,anti-fraud knowledge reservation,demand preference and self-control),which explained 60.33%of the variance variation.Confirmatory factor analysis showed that the 6 factor structure model fitted well(x2/df=3.42,GFI=0.92,CFI=0.93,IFI=0.93,TLI=0.92,RMSEA=0.05,SRMR=0.05).The CSSTNFQ total scores and the scores of each factor were positively correlated with the VFS total scores(ICC=0.12-0.62,Ps<0.01).The Cronbach's α coefficients of the total questionnaire and the 5 factors ranged 0.73 to 0.88,and the test-retest reliabilities ranged 0.77 to 0.93.Conclusion:The College Students'Susceptibility to Tele-com Network Fraud Questionnaire(CSSTNFQ)has good validity and reliability.
