The Short Form of the Physical Self- Description Questionnaire: Validation Study among Slovenian Elementary and High School Students
نویسندگان
چکیده
The objective of the study was to examine psychometric characteristics of the short form of the Physical-Self Description Questionnaire (PSDQ-S) in a Slovenian adolescent sample and to examine the differences in multidimensional physical selfconcept in relation to age and gender. Participants were 362 elementary and high school students (189 girls, 173 boys, Mage=15.28). Confirmatory factor analysis provided support for factor validity and reliability of the Slovenian version of the PSDQ-S. The results of the multivariate analysis of variance indicated significant overall effects of age and gender on student’s self-perceptions. The Slovenian version of the PSDQ-S displayed acceptable measurement properties and may be confidently used in research and practice to assess multidimensional physical self-concept among adolescent students.
