Abstract This study aimed to examine the psychometric properties of the 10-item Socialization Self-Efficacy Scale (SSES) using a sample of international transracially adoptive parents. This online survey design study recruited transracially adoptive parents from parenting support groups. Using a random split sample of the data, exploratory factor analysis resulted in two subfactors: cultural socialization self-efficacy and racial socialization self-efficacy. Next, confirmatory factor analysis in the remaining sample supported the two-factor structure. The findings provide strong initial support for the validity of the SSES that measures transracially adoptive parents’ motivation and belief in their ability to engage in cultural and racial socialization practices.

国际跨种族收养父母对社会化自我效能感量表的初步验证

摘要 本研究旨在使用国际跨种族收养父母的样本来检验 10 项社会化自我效能量表 (SSES) 的心理测量特性。这项在线调查设计研究从育儿支持团体中招募了跨种族的养父母。使用随机分割的数据样本，探索性因素分析产生两个子因素：文化社会化自我效能感和种族社会化自我效能感。接下来，剩余样本中的验证性因素分析支持双因素结构。调查结果为 SSES 的有效性提供了强有力的初步支持，SSES 衡量跨种族养父母对他们参与文化和种族社会化实践的能力的动机和信念。
