The purpose of this study was to validate the Adapted Inventory of Virtues and Strengths (AIVS). AIVS is a unique instrument that operationalizes virtues in terms of character traits that are specially designed for psychosocial adaptation and rehabilitation. Data were collected from 464 individuals with disabilities and analyzed via the combination of exploratory (n = 256) and confirmatory analyses (n = 208). Although the results suggest dropping some items, the original five-virtue structure was supported and confirmed via both analyses. The construct validity of AIVS was further analyzed via correlation analyses between AIVS and other measures including Values in Action Inventory of Strengths 72-Item, Satisfaction with Life Scale, Connor-Davison Resilience Scale, and General Self-Efficacy Scale. The results suggest that with continuing research to document reliability and validity, AIVS has potential in the context of rehabilitation research. Further discussion on psychometric information of AIVS and future implications were presented.

这项研究的目的是验证经过修改的美德和强项清单（AIVS）。AIVS是一种独特的工具，可根据专门为社会心理适应和康复而设计的性格特征来运作美德。从464名残疾人中收集数据，并通过探索性研究（n = 256）和确证分析（n= 208）。尽管结果表明有些项目被丢弃，但通过两次分析都支持并确认了原始的五种虚拟结构。通过AIVS与其他指标之间的相关性分析，进一步分析了AIVS的结构效度，这些指标包括“ 72项优势的行动清单”中的值，对生活的满意度量表，Connor-Davison适应力量表和“一般自我效能感”量表。结果表明，随着对文献可靠性和有效性的持续研究，AIVS在康复研究方面具有潜力。提出了关于AIVS的心理测量信息的进一步讨论及其未来意义。
