ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVES:

The aim of this study was to develop the Reciprocal Attachment Questionnaire-Korean version (RAQ-K).

METHODS:

The authors tested the reliability of dimensional and pattern scales of RAQ-K with Crohnbach's alpha, test-retest reliability and interscale correlation, and construct validity with factor analysis. The subjects were Korean undergraduate students 234 males and 249 females in the medical and nursing schools of Kyungpook National University.

RESULTS:

The dimensional scale of RAQ-K proved to be reliable in terms of Crohnbach's alpha coefficient except Availability and Use subscales, test-retest reliability and interscale correlation. The pattern scales of RAQ-K were reliable. Both dimensional and pattern scales were valid with two factor orthogonal rotation.

CONCLUSION:

The authors found RAQ-K retained available psychometric properties. But further study with some consideration to develop RAQ-K is expected. This research should assess samples of various age groups or various kinds of patients after considering two subscales. The authors stress that it is very important to consider the cultural difference between the East and the West and characteristics of Korean culture in developing a Korean version of foreign scales.
