Abstract
Introduction and objectiveThe present study examines the construct validity and reliability of a group climate measure (QCGCR), associated to real life intervention, in a sample of 153 girls (M age=15.2 years) placed in Canadian residential care centers. MethodConfirmatory factor analysis have been performed on three distinctive factors of group climate measure: “peer relation”, “relation with educators” and “educative practices”. ResultsThe results show an adequate fit to the data, indicating construct validity of this measure of group climate. Cronbach's alpha reliability coefficients are also good for all the 12 associated scales. ConclusionsThis measure of group climate reflects the life in units of residential care centers, through these three distinctive factors, and fits to re educative context links to adolescents in social re adaptation.
