Borderline personality disorder (BPD) is a complex and severe psychiatric condition characterized by emotional, self-image, behavior, and relational instability. While adult BPD heterogeneity has been extensively studied, the phenomenological borderline personality features (BPFs) in adolescence remain uninvestigated. This study aimed to explore the potentially dynamic causal relationships between BPFs in adolescence and identify the subtypes through cross-lagged panel network (CLPN) analysis. Two independent Chinese adolescent samples were followed over 18 months (
The present study aims to develop the Chinese Invalidating Family Scale (CIFS) and examine its psychometric properties. The CIFS comprises two parts that measure the degree (Part 1) and types (Part 2) of family invalidation. Study 1 explored the structure and reliability of the CIFS using data from Sample 1 (N = 1323; Mage = 26.3) and Sample 2 (N = 152; Mage = 25.1). Part 1 of the CIFS is separated into father (20 items) and mother (27 items) subscales. Exploratory factor analysis identified four factors for the father subscale and five factors for the mother subscale. The shared factors are neglect, denial, emotional dysregulation, and overemphasis on achievements, while psychological control is the unique dimension for Mother subscale. Part 2 includes five items assessing the types of family environment. Results indicated acceptable to good reliability of the CIFS, with Cronbach's α higher than 0.60, split-half reliability higher than 0.70, ICCs higher than 0.70, and high criterion-related validity. Study 2 examined the structure and the validity of Part 1 with Sample 3 (N = 2282; Mage = 19.90) through confirmatory factor analysis. Part 1 showed good construct validity (RMSEAs = 0.05, GFI, NFI, CFI, and AGFI >0.90) and acceptable convergent validity (AVE >0.36, CR >0.76). Overall, the CIFS is a promisingly stable and valid tool to evaluate the invalidating family environment in Chinese culture.本研究旨在编制中国无效家庭环境量表(CIFS),并检验其心理测量学方面的性质。CIFS由两部分组成,分别衡量无效家庭的程度(第1部分)和类型(第2部分)。研究1使用样本1 (N = 1323; Mage = 26.3)和样本2 (N = 152;平均年龄 = 25.1)来探索CIFS的结构和信度。CIFS的第1部分被分为父亲(20项)和母亲(27项)子量表。探索性因素分析确定了父亲子量表的四个因素和母亲子量表的五个因素。父母子量表共同的因素包括忽视、否认、情绪失调和过分强调成就,而心理控制是母亲子量表的独特维度。第2部分包含评估家庭环境类型的5个项目。结果表明,CIFS有可接受的信度,Cronbach ‘s α值高于0.60,分半信度高于0.70,ICCs高于0.70,效标关联效度较高。研究2通过确认性因素分析对样本3(N = 2282;Mage = 19.90)的第1部分的结构和效度进行了研究。第1部分显示出较好的结构效度 (RMSEAs = 0.05, GFI、NFI、CFI、AGFI >0.90),和可接受的聚敛效度(AVE >0.36, CR >0.76)。总体而言,CIFS是一个稳定而有效的工具,可以用来评估中国文化中的无效家庭环境。.
Introduction Borderline personality disorder (BPD) is the most studied of the axis II disorders. One of the most widely used diagnostic instruments is the Diagnostic Interview for Borderline Patients-Revised (DIB-R). The aim of this study was to test the reliability and validity of DIB-R for use in the Chinese culture. Methods The reliability and validity of the DIB-R Chinese version were assessed in a sample of 236 outpatients with a probable BPD diagnosis. The Structured Clinical Interview for DSM-IV Personality Disorders (SCID-II) was used as a standard. Test–retest reliability was tested six months later with 20 patients, and inter-rater reliability was tested on 32 patients. Results The Chinese version of the DIB-R showed good internal global consistency (Cronbach's α of 0.916), good test–retest reliability (Pearson correlation of 0.704), good inter-rater reliability (intra-class correlation coefficient of 0.892 and kappa of 0.861). When compared with the DSM-IV diagnosis as measured by the SCID-II, the DIB-R showed relatively good sensitivity (0.768) and specificity (0.891) at the cutoff of 7, moderate diagnostic convergence (kappa of 0.631), as well as good discriminating validity. Discussion The Chinese version of the DIB-R has good psychometric properties, which renders it a valuable method for examining the presence, the severity, and component phenotypes of BPD in Chinese samples.
Scientifically tourism resource evaluation is an important way for tourism to develop successfully.This paper takes Ganzi Autonomous as a study case,and analyzes the characteristic of its tourism resources.Then it also put up with the strategies of tourism resources exploitation,trying to promote the further tourism developing of not only Ganzi Autonomous,but also Sichuan Province and ethnic group places in China.
Objective: To study social anxiety proneness in college students and factors having influence on it Method: 200 college students were assessed with Social Anxiety Inventory, Shame-Proneness Scale, EQQ-short form, Coping Style Questionnaire, Beck Depression Scale, and Trait Anxiety Scale Result: Social anxiety of college students was influenced by shame-proneness, psychoticism and extroversion of personality Students with high social anxiety proneness were also more easily ashamed by their own behaviors Lack of negative coping styles also contributed to their proneness Low social anxiety proneness could be explained partially by three factors: psychoticism and extroversion personality, self-appraised trait anxiety Conclusion: Shame-proneness, psychoticism and extroversion personality are main factors having influence on social anxiety proneness Positive self-evaluation and coping style are helpful in reducing social anxiety
