中文版「止觀覺察注意量表」之信效度分析

Psychometric Properties of the Chinese Translation of Mindful Attention Awareness Scale (CMAAS)

「止觀」源於佛禪靜坐之概念，為一種專注於此時此刻，但又不評價之心理歷程。近年來此概念已廣泛被應用至醫學、教育、輔導、心理治療等等領域，並已發展出相關測量工具。其中，最被廣泛使用的「止觀覺察注意量表」（Mindful attentionawareness scale），目前已被翻譯成多種語言版本，但卻仍無中文版本。本研究目的即為建立中文版「止觀覺察注意量表」。研究一以157名受試者進行探索性因素分析，得到單一因素結構，且該量表能有效預測心理適應指標。研究二以204名受試者進行驗證性因素分析，單一因素結構符合模型適配指標，亦重複驗證與心理適應指標據以顯著之關連。研究三以116 名受試者間隔兩個月施測，得到良好的再測信度。三個研究顯示中文版「止觀覺察注意量表」具有良好的信效度。本文亦針對止觀研究與應用進行延伸討論。

Mindfulness originally refers to a Buddhist meditation practice that cultivates present moment awareness with a nonjudgmental manner.Recently， the concept of mindfulness has been transformed into psychological treatments and widely adapted to medical，educational， counseling， and psychotherapy domains. Beyond clinical treatments，researchers also developed several scales to measure individual differences. Amongthese scales， the Mindful Attention Awareness Scale (MAAS) (Brown & Ryan， 2003) is the most widely used measurement and has been translated into different languages.However， there is no Chinese version of the MAAS yet. The main purpose of this research was to establish the Chinese version of the MAAS. Exploratory (study 1， n =157) and confirmatory (study 2， n = 204) factor analyses confirmed the one factor solution.Good internal consistency and test-retest reliability (study 3， n = 116) were supported.Furthermore， the relationships between MAAS and other psychological adjustment indices were significant as expected (Study 1 and 2). Potential theoretical and practical applications of the measure were discussed.
