| Summary: | The present study was
conducted to validate the Chinese version of the Adult Decision-Making
Competence scale. 364 college students were recruited from four universities in
China. The results indicate the Chinese Adult Decision-Making Competence
subscales have good internal consistency and the two-factor structure in the
study of Bruine de Bruin et al. (2007) was conformed. Gender differences were
found in Resistance to Sunk Cost. Differences of Applying Decision Rules and
Consistency in Risk Perception were found between participants with different
education background. Overall, the Chinese Adult Decision-Making Competence
scale is validated in China. |
