A Study On Questionaire Design Of Adolescent's Interpersonal Curiosity

Objective:The research of interpersonal curiosity bases on it's measurement,so this research based on the Classical Test Theory(CTT),used the method of combined theory and empirical,logical analysis and date analysis,preliminarily develop a questionnaire to assess the adolescent's interpersonal curiosity.Method:First,through literature review,experts' evalua-tion,open questionnaire and interview,the initial theoretical framework and the initial questionaire was established.Then,through the first item analysis,exploratory factor analysis formed a modified version of the initial questionnaire.Through the second item analysis and exploratory factor analysis formed the formal questionnaire.Finally,the structural dimension of the adolescent's interpersonal curiosity was verified by confirmatory factor analysis,and the reliability and validity of the formal questionnaire were tested.In addition,on the basis of the new questionnaire,the situation and characteristics of adolescents' interpersonal curiosity were discussed throughdescriptive analysis,independent sample T test and variance analysis.Results: 1.Adolescent's interpersonal curiosity consists of three dimensions,that is,general interpersonal curiosity,convert interpersonal curiosity and exploratory behavior.2.The adolescent's interpersonal curiosity questionaire has a good internal consistency reliability(Cronbach ? =0.860),split-half reliability(0.760?r?0.777),and test-retest reliability(0.737?r?0.928).And every dimension has a good internal consistency reliability(0.718 ? Cronbach ? ?0.815),split-half reliability(0.760?r?0.777),and testretest reliability(0.737 ? r ? 0.928).The content validity,construct validity and criterion-related validity are goood,the correlation coefficient between the dimensions is 0.481?r?0.597,and the correlation coefficient between the dimensions and the total score of the questionnaire is 0.710?r?0.806.The scores of the questionnaire and every dimension are highly relavent with CEI-II(0.274?r?0.397)and every correlation coefficient is significant.3.There were significant differences in different grade student on total score(F=2.601,p<0.05,grade 4>3>6>2>1>5),on general interpersonal curiosity(F=2.917,p<0.05,grade 4>2>3>6>1>5),onexploratory behavior(F=2.486,p<0.05,grade 4>6>3>2>5>1);There were no significant differences in gender and native place.Conclusions:1.The adolescent's interpersonal curiosity questionaire includes three dimensions of 16 items.2.The questionaire has good reliability and validity,and every indicators meet the requirements of psychometric measurement.3.Adolescent's interpersonal curiosity have significant differences in different grades on total score,general interpersonal curiosity and exploratory behavior.Grade 9,grade10 and 12 students scores highly than other grades.There were no significant differences in grades on convert interpersonal curiosity and in gender and native place on dimensions and total score.
