Introversion scale 内向量表

量表简介：

This introversion scale was developed by McCroskey to be distinct from measures of communication apprehension. An examination of the literature on introversion indicated that other introversions scales have included items that were tapping apprehension about communication. Items were drawn from the work of Eysenck, with items which referenced communication excluded. This permits the measurement of introversion without the contamination of communication apprehension items and allows the examination of both introversion and communication apprehension as predictors of communication behaviors independently of each other. The correlations of this measure with the PRCA-24 have been around .30. Alpha reliability estimates have been above .80. Items to measure neuroticism are used as filler items and are not scored with the introversion items.

该内向量表由 McCroskey 开发，有别于测量沟通恐惧的量表。对有关内向性的文献进行的研究表明，其他内向性量表中也包含了对交流感到担忧的项目。该量表的项目取自艾森克的研究成果，其中不包括与交流有关的项目。这样，在测量内向性时就不会受到对交流的忧虑项目的影响，而且还可以独立地对内向性和对交流的忧虑这两种预测交流行为的因素进行研究。该测量与 PRCA-24 的相关性约为 0.30。阿尔法信度估计值在 0.80 以上。测量神经质的项目被用作填充项目，不与内向性项目一起计分。
