Introduction

Healthy lifestyle behaviors are at the core of maintaining health. This study analyzed the psychometric properties of the 16-item healthy lifestyle beliefs (HLB) scale that measures a person's beliefs about their ability to live a healthy lifestyle.

Method

Descriptive statistics, exploratory factor analysis, confirmatory analysis, and measurement invariance were conducted for this study.

Results

Cronbach alpha was 0.894. The Exploratory factor analysis scree plot identified two factors with eigenvalues greater than one. All factor loadings were greater than 0.40 and no items cross-loaded. A two-factor solution was retained for Confirmatory factor analysis. The measurement invariance results suggested that there was no gender difference in HLB regarding factor structure, factor loading, threshold, and residual variances.

Discussion

The HLB scale was found to have adequate internal consistency and fit with the data. Findings show it is valid and acceptable for both boys and girls.

青少年健康生活方式信念量表的心理测量特性


 介绍


健康的生活方式行为是保持健康的核心。这项研究分析了 16 项健康生活方式信念 (HLB) 量表的心理测量特性,该量表衡量一个人对其健康生活方式能力的信念。

 方法


本研究进行了描述性统计、探索性因素分析、验证性分析和测量不变性。

 结果


克隆巴赫阿尔法值为 0.894。探索性因素分析碎石图确定了特征值大于 1 的两个因素。所有因子载荷均大于 0.40,并且没有项目交叉载荷。保留双因素解决方案用于验证性因素分析。测量不变性结果表明,HLB 在因子结构、因子负荷、阈值和残差方差方面不存在性别差异。

 讨论


HLB 量表被发现具有足够的内部一致性并与数据相符。调查结果表明,它对于男孩和女孩来说都是有效且可接受的。
