ABSTRACT

Trauma-informed climates prioritize staff and client experiences of safety, trust, choice, collaboration, and empowerment. The Trauma-Informed Climate Scale (TICS) was developed to measure staff perceptions of these values within the service environment. The aims of the current study were to create a reduced version of the original TICS and assess its psychometric properties to increase its efficiency and appropriateness in human service settings. Item retention was based on discrimination parameters, item-total correlations, and correlations with external criteria. The analytic approach yielded a 10-item scale reduction, with confirmatory factor analyses supporting the scale’s construct validity and reliability (α = .91).

摘要

受外伤影响的气候优先考虑员工和客户的安全，信任，选择，协作和授权方面的经验。制定了《创伤知情气候量表》（TICS），以衡量员工在服务环境中对这些价值的看法。当前研究的目的是创建原始TICS的简化版本并评估其心理测量特性，以提高其在人类服务环境中的效率和适当性。项目保留是基于辨别参数，项目总体相关性以及与外部标准的相关性。该分析方法减少了10个项目的量表，而确认性因素分析支持该量表的结构有效性和可靠性（α= .91）。
