Abstract:
Objective:To revise the Chinese version of the Coparenting Inventory for Parents and Adolescents(CI-PA)in middle school students and their parents to test the validity and reliability.Methods:Totally 691 middle school students were tested with the adolescent version of CI-PA,924 parents were tested with the parents'version of CI-PA.The sample was split randomly in half,and item analysis and exploratory factor analysis,confirmatory factor analysis,criterion validity analysis and convergent validity test were performed respectively.The Achenbach Youth Self-Report(YSR)and marital satisfaction subscale(MSS)of Olson Enrich Marital Inventory(ENRICH)were used to test the validity of the criterion.Totally 62 students and 70 parents were followed to complete the Chi-nese version of CI-PA 4 weeks after the first investigation.Results:Exploratory factor analysis showed that there were 37 and 25 items in the adolescent version and the parents'version respectively,3 factors were extracted,inclu-ding 3 dimensions of cooperation,triangulation and conflict.The factor loadings of each item ranged from 0.60 to 0.95,and the subscales explained the total variance ranged from 64.56％to 74.06％.Confirmatory factor analysis showed that all the 3 factors models fitted well in adolescent version(x2/df=1.32,1.30,1.41;CFI=0.99,0.99,0.99;TLI=0.99,0.99,0.98;RMSEA=0.03,0.03,0.03)and the parents'version(x2/df=1.20,1.33;CFI=0.99,0.99;TLI=0.99,0.99;RMSEA=0.02,0.03).Cooperation scores of the adolescent version were negatively correlated with the YSR scores(ICC=-0.18--0.27,Ps＜0.01),triangulation and conflict scores of the adoles-cent version were positively correlated with the YSR scores(ICC=0.15-0.34,Ps＜0.01).Cooperation scores of the parents'version were positively correlated with the MSS scores(ICC=0.52,0.47,Ps＜0.01),triangulation and conflict scores of the parents'version were negatively correlated with the MSS scores(ICC=-0.28--0.47,Ps＜0.01).The Cronbach's α of 3 dimensions were all above 0.72,the retest reliabilities(ICC)were all a-bove 0.54.Conclusion:The Chinese version of Coparenting Inventory for Parents and Adolescents(CI-PA)is valid and reliable in measuring the coparenting in Chinese adolescence families.
