RESUMO
Objective: To revise the Chinese version of Father-Child Relationship Scale(FCRS) and to examine its reliability and validity. Methods: Data were collected with Child-Parent Relationship Scale based on a sample of 400 young children and their fathers,retest was given after a month,and follow-up study was carried out to 106 children for 9 months. Results: The results of Confirmatory Factor Analysis showed a good fit to the data,and the examination of its criterion-related validity,by using children's behavior problems and social competence as criterions,also indicated that both the concurrent and the predictive validities of FCRS were satisfactory. The internal consistency reliability of FCRS was satisfactory,with Cronbach ? coefficient 0.71; and the test-retest reliability was also satisfactory,with test-retest correlation coefficient 0.68(P
