柯氏性格量表效度概化之統合分析

Abstract

本研究之目的乃在透過統合分析法(meta-analysis)，對「柯氏性格量表」過去 34 年來所累積的研究資料，做客觀、計量性的分忻，以瞭解其效度概化的程度。 經電腦程式 Meta-HC 分析後顯示：當以「柯氏性格量表」作為人格上的區辨工具時， 以在心埋症病人的效度最高，其次依序為特殊組群、不同心理症病人、犯人：而當施測於生理症病人與男女之間時，其區辨力稍嫌不足。綜觀本研究的結果顯示: 「柯氏性格量表」的效度概化程度頗高， 區辨力頗為理想， 因此是一個值得進一步開發、研究以及推廣使用的人格測驗。

This research aims at objective and statistical analysis on the investigative data of Ko's Mental Health Questionnaire (KMHQ) in the past thirty-four years to get some idea about the extent of KMHQ's validity generalization. This research employs the computer program Meta-HC as the analyzing tool. The research reveals: Among the six independent variables, the weighted average effect size of the psychological-invalids is the highest, meaning that KMHQ's distinguishing capability being the strongest. The next three independent variables are special clans, nonpsychological-invalids and criminals. However, the effect size on physical-invalids and sex only reach mid or low degree, showing that KMHQ's distinguishing capability on physical-invalids and sex is not high. To sum up, the utmost con clusion of this research is that, the extent of KMHQ's validity generalization is pretty high, its distin- guishing capability is pretty idealized. Therefore, KMHQ is a personality test that deserves to be further developed, studied as well as popularly adopted.
