Six items for the six primary domain; short scale of multidimensional hierarchical model of self concept

Summary/Abstract: Short scales from the domain the personality psychology like 10-items operationalization of Big Five model (BFI-10) or Single-Item-Self-Esteem- Scale (SISES) as Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale equivalent, could be valueable step forward in personality assesment. Weather short scales assessments are in accordance with tendencies from long questionnaires then it could be very practical and valuable psychological tool. The purpose of this study is to validate 6-items self-satisfaction scale (as one of self-concept aspect). Scale is operationalization of multidimensional hierarchical model of self-concept. The specificity of the scale is that every primary domain (competence, family, social, physical, emotional and academic) measure is based on only one item, while general dimension can be estimated as scale Burt or Hotelling component. Items are answered on 5-point scale. Scale SC-6 is validated through two studies. First was conducted on sample of 141 student (31% male and 61% female), age between 18 and 38 years (M=20.43; SD=4.07). Second study included 261 (42% male and 58% female) students with same range of age (M=21.09; SD=5.08). SC-6 scale shows satisfactory reliability in both studies. Convergent validity is examined over SC-6 correlations with Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale (RSES) and Schwarzer-Jerusalem General Self-Efficacy Scale (GSES). All corrected item-total correlations indicate satisfactory values (>.30) while items intercorrelations are completely in accordance with previous studies. Exploratory and Confirmatory factor analysis confirmed hypothesis on single latenet variable that match to general self-satisfaction. First principal component explain 45% of variance. Hotelling and Burt components correlation coefficient (r=.94) suggests that both of them can be used as adequate SC-6 measure. Correlation between general SC-6 score and Rosenberg self-esteem score (r=.26) and Schwarzer-Jerusalem general self-efficacy measure (r=.57) are both significant (p<.01). According to preliminary findings, SC-6 scale can be used in assessments of self-satisfaction as self-concept aspect.
