ABSTRACT

Objective To develop the state-owned enterprise worker's stressor scale and assess its reliability and validity.Methods Combined qualitative and quantitive methods,the state-owned enterprise worker's stressor scale was developed based deep interviews.Data were collected from 6400 state-owned enterprise workers in China.The initial sample was split randomly into two samples (n 1 =2835 ; n 2 =2834).The first data were used to set for exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and the second data were used for confirmatory factor analysis (CFA).3 subscales (anxiety,depression and somatization) of symptom checklist 90(SCL-90) were used for testing criterion validity.Results The state-owned enterprise worker's stressor scale got 4 factors and 15 items,including job stressor,relationship stressor,development stressor and family stressor.The Cronbach α coefficients of the full scale and its four factors were 0.66 ～ 0.86.The results of CFA showed RMSEA =0.066,NFI =0.97,NNFI =0.97,CFI =0.97,IFI =0.97,GFI =0.95.In addition,stressor and its four factors had significant positive correlations with anxiety,depression and somatization (r =0.29-0.43,P ＜ 0.01).Conclusion The stateowned enterprise worker's stressor scale meets psychometric criteria and is an effective tool.
