ABSTRACT
ObjectiveTo provide a brief scale of mood measurement with satisfactory reliability and validity.MethodsThe 40-item BFS was abbreviated to a short-vcrsioncd BFS by item analysis.282 adult participants were surveyed by the brief BFS and NEO-FFI while NEO-FFI was taken as a criterion instrument.Reliability and validity of brief BFS were examined.ResultsThe brief BFS had 18 items including six dimensions ( activity,cheer,calmness,indignation,stir and depression),and the cronbach's α were 0.87,0.75,0.85,0.86,0.84 and 0.86 respectively and the retest reliability( r value) were 0.67,0.57,0.61,0.62,0.75 and 0.69 respectively.All the key fit indices of confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) of brief BFS were above 0.90.Besides,NEO-FFI had significant correlation with brief BFS.ConclusionThe brief BFS has satisfactory reliability and validity.
