  • Cross‐Cultural Adaptation and Psychometric Properties of the Japanese Version of the Attitudes toward Singlehood Scale 1,2,3,4

    Open Access•Chee Seng Tan, Siew-May Cheng et al.•ARTICLE•Japanese Psychological Research•2025

    The nine‐item Attitudes toward Singlehood Scale (AtSS) is a newly developed measurement for people to self‐report their manners toward staying single. The original English‐version AtSS shows sound psychometric properties in the Malaysian and Indian contexts. To necessarily adapt the AtSS in cross‐cultural studies, we developed the Japanese version of the AtSS (AtSS‐J) and examined its psychometric qualities in a sample of 316 Japanese undergradua…

    Open Access•Chee Seng Tan, Jonathan E Ramsay et al.•ARTICLE•Applied Research in Quality of Life•2025•References: 54

    Social support has been found to facilitate creativity. However, the underlying mechanism remains unclear.

Study 1 included a community sample of 1204 individuals aged 18 to 64 from Australia, India, Malaysia, the Philippines, and Singapore. Correlation…

  • Development and validation of a mandarin version of demoralization scale for adolescents and young adults

    Open Access•Chuan‐Yung Huang, Chuan-Yung Huang et al.•ARTICLE•Current Psychology•2023

    The impact of demoralization among the general population has received little attention due to the lack of an appropriate measurement. Three studies involving 1,143 high school and undergraduate students in Taiwan were thus conducted to develop and validate a tool to assess demoralization. A pool of 50 items was first developed and administered to high school students. Exploratory factor analysis results supported a 5-factor solution with 15 item…

Although the BAS-2 has been translated into the Malay language and found to have promising qualities, the psychometric characteristics of the English version of BAS-2 remain unknown in the Malaysian context. The present study thus administered the English version BAS-2 and selfie-editing frequency…
