Abstract: The purpose was to revise the Chinese version of the Personal Need for Structure (PNS) Scale. The questionnaire was administered to 1042 participants. The item analysis showed that all of the 11 items met the psychometric criteria. The confirmatory factor analysis indicated that the Chinese version of PNS containing 11 items was composed of two dimensions, which remained the same structure as the original version. These two dimensions were desire for structure and response to lack of structure. The internal consistency reliability and the split-half reliability were all above 0.80. The test-retest reliability was 0.79. The results indicated that the scale has acceptable discriminant validity and convergent validity.

Key words: need for structure, psychometrics, reliability, validation

摘要： 修订结构需求（personal need for structure, PNS）量表，对1042名被试进行问卷测量。项目分析显示，11道题目均符合心理测量学要求。验证性因素分析表明，中文版量表符合原量表的二因素模型，即“对结构的需求”和“对缺乏结构的反应”。量表的内部一致性和分半信度均高于0.80，重测信度为0.79。量表具有较好的效标关联效度。
