ABSTRACT

The Good Lives Model (GLM) is a framework of rehabilitation when working with individuals who have committed criminal offenses. However, its core assumptions (i.e. that the ‘good life’ is comprised of various universal primary human goods) have not been tested, and there is no standardized measure of these concepts. We used a large community sample (N = 1,309) to develop a measure of primary human goods. Our 100-item draft Good Lives Questionnaire (GLQ) was reduced to 35 items via exploratory principal components analysis (n = 900), with its five-factor structure supported by confirmatory factor analysis (n = 409). This structure runs counter to the existing scholarship related to the GLM, which proposes eleven primary human goods. We found each of our factors – ‘Inner Peace’, ‘Energy and Agency’, ‘Social Connectedness’, ‘Varied Leisure Activities’, and ‘Spirituality’ – to be differentially associated with measures of self-reported aggression, criminality, and delinquency, supporting its validity as a measure of crime- and delinquency-related constructs. They were also associated with measures of psychological wellbeing, personal agency, social connectedness, and personality. We discuss the future validation of the GLQ, as well as its potential utility in clinical and forensic settings. An open access preprint of this paper is available at https://psyarxiv.com/5trj9.

美好生活问卷的制定和验证

摘要

美好生活模式 (GLM) 是与犯有刑事罪行的个人一起工作时的康复框架。然而,它的核心假设(即“美好生活”由各种普遍的基本人类商品组成)尚未经过检验,并且这些概念没有标准化的衡量标准。我们使用了一个大型社区样本 ( N  = 1,309) 来衡量主要人类商品。我们的 100 个条目的美好生活问卷 (GLQ) 草案通过探索性主成分分析 ( n  = 900)减少到 35 个条目,其五因素结构得到验证性因子分析 ( n = 409)。这种结构与现有的与 GLM 相关的奖学金背道而驰,后者提出了 11 种主要人类产品。我们发现我们的每一个因素——“内心平静”、“能量和能动性”、“社会联系”、“多样的休闲活动”和“精神”——与自我报告的侵略、犯罪和犯罪的措施存在差异,支持其作为衡量犯罪和违法行为相关结构的有效性。它们还与心理健康、个人能动性、社会联系和个性的测量有关。我们讨论了 GLQ 的未来验证,以及它在临床和法医环境中的潜在效用。本文的开放获取预印本可从 https://psyarxiv.com/5trj9 获得。
