Abstract

Objective To revise Core Self-Evaluation Scale (CSES) and examine its reliability and validity in employees and undergraduates in China. Methods The adaptation of the scale was gotten by way of translation and back-translation. 400 employees and 272 undergraduates were tested by questionnaires, and their data were used to evaluate reliability and validity of the scale. Results In employees and undergraduates, the Cronbach' s coefficient of the CSES was respectively 0.71,0.81, and the test-retest reliability was respectively 0.81,0.84. The results of confirmatory factor analysis showed that the single factor model was more fit for the revised CSES. The scale had good convergent validity and incremental validity in the samples. Conclusion The CSES has good reliability and validity in employees and undergraduates, which can be used for measuring the core self-evaluation in practical research. Key words: Psychometric; Core self-evaluation scale; Reliability; Validity
