Development of self-criticism and self-reassurance questionnaire for youth

要旨

In the present study, the authors developed the self-criticism and self-reassurance scale for youth. In Study 1, 290 junior high school students and 500 high school students answered the draft of the scale items, and it was confirmed that the scale consists of a two-factor structure (23 items). In Study 2, 940 junior high school students and 1199 high school students completed the questionnaire, and the test-retest reliability and concurrent validity of the scale were examined. In Study 2, the same factor structure as in Study 1 was confirmed and this scale had a good internal consistency and test-retest reliability (three weeks). The validity of the scale was examined in relation to self-esteem, depressive tendency, internal working model (attachment style), and contingent self-worth, and we confirmed the good validity of this scale.
