Abstract:
Objective:To develop a Child School Refusal Behavior Rating Scale(SRBQC)and examine its reliabilities and validities. Methods:Based on literature review,interview,and open-ended questionnaire,124 origi-nal items were developed. Totally 573 students were recruited to complete the test version. After item and explorato-ry factor analysis,the formal scale-SRBQC was got. Totally 946 students were tested with formal version for further confirmatory factor analysis,internal consistency reliability and composite reliability. The criterion validity was test-ed with the Social Anxiety Scale for Child (SASC). Totally 41 students were retested for test-retest reliability with 2 weeks interval. Results:The formal version of SRBQC included 19 items. Exploratory factor analysis generated 5 factors which account 59. 793% of the variance in all,the results of confirmatory factor analysis showed that SR-BQC had a good construct validity (χ2 =329. 51,df=142,χ2/df=2. 32,CFI=0. 97,GFI=0. 93,IFI=0. 97,NFI=0. 95,NNFI=0. 96,RMSEA=0. 05,SRMR=0. 05). The SRBQC scores were positively correlated with the SASC scores (r=0. 18-0. 34,Ps<0. 05 ). The Cronbach coefficients were 0. 87 for the total questionnaire and 0. 55 -0. 78 for the 5 factors. The test-retest reliabilities were 0. 84 for the total questionnaire and 0. 66 -0. 78 for the 5 factors. Conclusion:The reliability and validity of the School Refusal Bevior Questionaire for Children(SRBQC) meet the needs of psychometrics.
