description | The aim of this study, conducted at two time points, was to evaluate the
psychometric properties of the Serbian translation of the Authenticity Scale
on the sample of students. The paper presents the results of testing the
validity construct of the Authenticity Scale by confirmatory factor analysis
at two time points, on the initial sample of 706 students and on the
test-retest sample of 206 students within a 10-week interval. The model in
which there are three separate, mutually related dimensions with the
superordinate factor of authenticity best describes the scale structure. The
test-retest sample was used to test the convergent validity of the
Authenticity Scale by evaluating its relation to the measures of both
positive and negative affect, self-esteem, psychological distress and
psychological well-being and mental health index. The results showed that the
Serbian translation of the Authenticity Scale represents a reliable and valid
measure of authenticity. |
