Spirituality and meaning-making across contexts: Structural topic modeling of the Fetzer spirituality study in the United States
FOBism Unveiled: Quantifying Assimilative Racism within Asians in the United States
FOB (fresh-off-the-boat) is a term used to refer to unassimilated immigrants or sojourners, which has created a divide within the Asian community. In this study, we coined the term FOBism, a form of internalized racism (or appropriated racial oppression) that intersects with assimilation, and we developed a measure of FOBism. We created a 14-item, 3-factor FOBism Scale and evaluated its psychometric properties among a sample of 296 Asians in the …
Religion, cognition, and emotion: What can automated text analysis tell us about culture
As cultural conflicts are intensifying locally and internationally in the aftermath of COVID-19 pandemic, fine-tuned investigation of culture/religion, especially that of the marginalized populations, holds the potential to reduce disparity and suffering in the global village This study used 3 textual analysis programs-Topic Modeling, C-LIWC, and SSWC-Chinese-to shed light on the differences in cognition and emotion between two communities with r…
A Validation of a Multicultural Competency Measure Among South Korean Counselors
The authors translated the California Brief Multicultural Competence Scale (CBMCS; Gamst et al., 2004), a measure of multicultural competence, into Korean for cross-cultural validation. An exploratory factor analysis followed by a confirmatory factor analysis on a sample of Korean counselors (N = 365) supported a 3-factor model: Multicultural Ability, Multicultural Knowledge, and Multicultural Awareness. The Korean version was deemed to possess s…
Dimensions of Religion and Spirituality: A Longitudinal Topic Modeling Approach
In lieu of the traditional text data analysis methods, structural topic modeling was utilized to analyze the text contents of 255 self-report inventories of religion and spirituality (R/S) published from 1929 to 2017. The study had two objectives: (a) to clarify and identify the latent dimensions of R/S inherent in the items of the measures; and (b) to examine and demonstrate the usefulness of a longitudinal topic modeling in the study of R/S. We…
The Spiritual Transcendence Index: An Item Response Theory Analysis
In an attempt to measure understudied dimensions of spirituality, recent efforts have focused on the transcendent dimension of spirituality. The Spiritual Transcendence Index (STI) was developed to assess a perceived experience of the sacred that affects one’s ability to transcend life’s difficulties. The main focus of the current study was to investigate the psychometric properties of the STI by utilizing the microscopic item-level examination t…
Preliminary exploration of the Measurement of Diverse Adolescent Spirituality (MDAS) among Mexican youth
In the current article we propose and offer a preliminary test of an ecologically sensitive theoretical and methodological framework for understanding diverse adolescent spiritual development. The study summarizes the initial stages of development of the Measurement of Diverse Adolescent Spirituality (MDAS) that assesses three dimensions of spirituality: transcendence, fidelity, and contribution. We report our procedures and findings from an init…

The Factor Structure and Measurement Invariance of the Daily Spiritual Experiences Scale
The current study has two main goals: (a) to identify a factor structure of the Daily Spiritual Experiences Scale (DSES) on a large archival data, collected from 1,325 adults in the United States (709 women, 616 men) by the U.S. General Social Survey in 2004 and (b) to examine the measurement invariance of the 16 DSES items between women and men in the same data to see whether any of the items are favoring or biased toward either women or men. Th…
The factor structure of the Daily Spiritual Experiences Scale: Exploring the role of theistic and nontheistic approaches at the end of life
The Daily Spiritual Experiences Scale (DSES; Underwood & Teresi, 2002) has made a distinctive contribution to the measurement of spirituality. However, the factor structure of the DSES has not been analyzed thoroughly and the instrument has not been administered to persons at the end of life (EOL). Thus, this study examined the dimensionality of the DSES using both exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis and examined the unique impact of dif…
Psychometric Properties of a Translated Korean Adult Attachment Measure
In this study, psychometric properties of a Korean-adapted version of the Experiences in Close Relationships—Revised scale were investigated using confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) in conjunction with item response theory. In CFA, neither the supposed two-factor model of Anxiety and Avoidance nor two single-factor models for each factor showed a reasonable fit. In addition, the results from the CFA suggested that the negative-worded and positive…
Asian Americans’ adherence to Asian values, attributions about depression, and coping strategies
Using Brickman et al.'s (1982) theoretical framework of responsibility attributions, the authors examined the relationships among adherence to Asian values, attributions about the cause of and solution to depression, and preferred coping strategies in a nonclinical sample of Asian Americans. Results of a path analysis (N = 238) indicate that attribution of cause fully mediated the relations between adherence to Asian values and use of coping stra…
A Validation of the Factor Structure of OQ-45 Scores Using Factor Mixture Modeling
This study investigated the Outcome Questionnaire’s (OQ-45) factor structure and demonstrated the use of factor mixture modeling (FMM) for the purpose of score validation. OQ-45 scores did not fit the one-class, one- and three-factor models. Use of FMM to identify a two-class model is detailed. Implications for OQ-45 users are provided
