L'ikigai, concept originaire du Japon, s'apparente à la raison d'être et s'est révélé être impliqué dans de nombreuses études liées à la santé physique et mentale. Il ne commence que très récemment à être utilisé dans les études occidentales, par le biais du questionnaire Ikigai-9, développé au Japon. L'objectif de notre étude est la validation française de l'Ikigai-9. Une analyse factorielle exploratoire sur 170 participants a donné lieu à une structure Ikigai-9 à trois dimensions : « attitudes envers l'avenir », « reconnaissance de sa propre existence » et « émotions envers la vie ». Une analyse factorielle confirmatoire sur un échantillon indépendant de 1205 participants nous permet de basculer un item vers la dimension appropriée. Les indices de fiabilité interne des trois dimensions confirment la validation française de l'Ikigai-9. La version française de l'Ikigai-9 permet de réaliser des études interculturelles à plus grande échelle et d'approfondir la compréhension du concept d'Ikigai en zone francophone. Ikigai, a concept originating in Japan, is related to life purpose and has been found to be involved in many studies related to physical and mental health. It is only very recently that it has started to be used in Western studies, through the Ikigai-9 questionnaire, developed in Japan. The objective of our study is the French validation of the Ikigai-9. An exploratory factor analysis on 170 participants resulted in a three-factor structure of the Ikigai-9: "attitudes toward the future", "acknowledgement of one's own existence" and "emotions toward life". A confirmatory factor analysis on an independent sample of 1205 participants allows us to switch an item to the appropriate dimension. The internal reliability indices of the three dimensions confirm the French validation of the Ikigai-9. The French version of the Ikigai-9 allows for larger-scale cross-cultural studies and a better understanding of the concept of Ikigai in Western geographical areas. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Introduction: post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a topical issue due to the increase in armed conflicts and terrorist attacks in recent decades. The PCL-5 scale is used to screen and monitor patients with PTSD. The aim of our work was to validate a literary Arabic version of this scale on a population of Tunisian soldiers. Methods: the translation of the PCL-5 scale into Tunisian literary Arabic was performed according to the back-translation technique described by Werner and Campbell and recommended by Brislin. Cross-cultural validation was conducted in 7 steps according to Vallerand's method. Data collection was conducted at the psychiatry department of the Military Hospital of Tunis from February 2019 to December 2020. Results: we recruited 300 military personnel, 150 of whom were followed for PTSD. Cronbach's alpha was 0.98 indicating good internal consistency. The study of inter-item correlations revealed a total Spearman index of 0.75. This index indicates a good homogeneity of the translated scale items. Construct validity was checked using the Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin index (K-M-O) and Bartlett's test of sphericity. The latter was significant (p<0.000), and the K-M-O index was 0.969, indicating that the correlations between the items were of good quality. Conclusion: our study showed that the Arabic version of the PCL-5 scale has satisfactory psychometric properties comparable to those of the original version. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

L'objectif de cette étude était de valider une version française de l'échelle de satisfaction sexuelle. Un total de 646 participants, 468 femmes et 178 hommes âgés en moyenne de 35,18 ans (ET: 13,77), ont rempli en ligne 3 questionnaires: l'échelle de satisfaction sexuelle (Comeau & Boisvert, 1985), l'échelle d'évaluation de l'anxiété et de la dépression (Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale, HADS) et l'échelle d'ajustement dyadique à 16 items (Dyadic Adjustment Scale-16, DAS-16). L'analyse de la distribution des items, les corrélations inter-items et items-score total ainsi que l'analyse hiérarchique des facteurs obliques ont conduit à l'exclusion de 6 items. Une analyse factorielle confirmatoire de cette version à 19 items a montré des indicateurs satisfaisants (RMSEA = 0,012 ; SRMR = 0,065 ; CFI = 0,999 ; TLI = 0,999 ; GFI = 0,99) et l'alpha de Cronbach est de 0,96. L'échelle mesure un facteur général de satisfaction sexuelle. Cette étude a permis d'obtenir une version française de l'échelle de satisfaction sexuelle en 19 items proposant ainsi une mesure auto-rapportée valide et fiable de la satisfaction sexuelle. Les résultats ont été discutés à la lumière de leurs implications cliniques et scientifiques. The objective of this study was to validate a French version of the Index of Sexual Satisfaction. This unidimensional scale, the most widely used in international studies, evaluates sexual satisfaction in the context of couple relationships. A total of 646 participants, 468 women and 178 men with an average age of 35.18 years old (SD: 13.77), completed 3 questionnaires: the French version of the Index Sexual Satisfaction (Comeau & Boisvert, 1985), the Hospital Anxiety and Depression scale (HADS) and the Dyadic Adjustment Scale-16 (DAS-16) online. Analyses were conducted in three stages: (1) descriptive, correlational and exploratory factorial analyses to verify the properties of the items; (2) confirmatory analyses to confirm the version obtained; and (3) concurrent validity analysis. The analysis of the distribution of the items, the inter-item and item-total correlations, and the hierarchical oblique factor analysis led to the exclusion of 6 items. Confirmatory factor analysis of this 19-item version showed satisfactory indicators (RMSEA = 0.012; SRMR = 0.065; CFI = 0.999; TLI = 0.999; GFI = 0.99) and Cronbach's alpha is 0.96. The results revealed that men are more sexually dissatisfied. The ISS-19 score is moderately and positively correlated with age and length of relationship. Finally, the correlations showed that depression is associated with a decrease in sexual satisfaction while the quality of interactions is associated with an increase in sexual satisfaction. The scale measures a general factor of sexual satisfaction. This study provided a 19-item French version of the Index of Sexual Satisfaction, providing a valid and reliable self-reported measure of sexual satisfaction. The results were discussed in light of their clinical and scientific implications. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Dans les situations de polyhandicap, l'intrication complexe de déficiences multiples complique l'évaluation des compétences cognitives. Le P2CJP, échelle d'évaluation cognitive dédiée aux enfants et adolescents polyhandicapés, a été révisé sous le nom d'ECP (Évaluation-Cognition-Polyhandicap ; 2017) pour permettre son administration à tout âge, pour un bilan psychologique ; pour concevoir des aides adaptées et en évaluer les effets. Cet article présente la méthodologie de validation de l'échelle et particulièrement l'approche qualitative complétant la validation statistique de l'outil, ceci, dans le cadre d'une recherche participative. L'analyse qualitative a permis d'évaluer l'ergonomie de l'outil, d'en comprendre son utilisation et ses effets. Suivant les stades de validation de l'outil, l'analyse qualitative de l'expérience des utilisateurs de l'échelle a permis de modifier la forme et le fond de l'outil. Il est alors important de continuer à faire évoluer cette échelle dans une interaction féconde entre utilisateurs et chercheurs. Setting up a personalised project for any person with profound intellectual and multiple disabilities (PIMD) requires an evaluation of their cognitive skills. Nevertheless an international literature review highlights: a lack of adequate tools for evaluation of the cognitive skills of people with PIMD; the need to create standardised protocols. In 2009, Scelles et al. proposed the P2CJP–Profil de Compétences Cognitives du Jeune Polyhandicapé. This tool was designed for children up to 14 years of age. In 2017, this scale has been revised and extended to the adults, and called ECP (Evaluation-Cognition-PIMD). To elaborate and validate this tool, a statistical methodology has been combined with a qualitative process close to professionals and parents. The aim was to assess the relevance and the ergonomic of the ECP, the comprehension of items, the facility of use, the guideline and at least the effects regarding the practice. The qualitative analyse of user backgrounds, at all validation stages, let adapt the ECP as well on the content as on the form. This work reveals the necessity to continue to adapt the ECP through interactions between users and searchers. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Selon la Théorie des styles de réponses, les individus auraient recours à deux types de réponses à l'état dépressif : la rumination mentale et la distraction. Notre étude aura pour objectif principal de valider en langue française la Children's Response Styles Scale , échelle évaluant ces deux processus chez des enfants de 8 à 11 ans. Elle visera également à déterminer les liens des scores aux sous-échelles avec le sexe des participants et l'intensité de leur symptomatologie dépressive. Afin de procéder à la validation de la Children's Response Styles Scale , nous l'avons traduite et administrée avec la Children's Engagement Scale et l'Inventaire de dépression pour enfants à un total de 144 enfants de 8 à 11 ans (moyenne = 9,48 ; écart-type = 1,06). Nos analyses mettent en évidence une structure factorielle en deux dimensions, avec une cohérence interne satisfaisante pour la sous-échelle rumination (α = 0,78 ; ω = 0,78) et excellente pour la sous-échelle distraction (α = 0,85 ; ω = 0,85). De plus, nous pouvons distinguer une plus grande propension à la rumination chez les filles, une absence de différence entre les deux sexes en ce qui concerne la distraction, une corrélation positive entre rumination et dépression, ainsi qu'une absence de corrélation entre distraction et dépression. La version française de la Children's Response Styles Scale semble être une échelle valide et adéquate permettant de mesurer le recours à la rumination et la distraction chez les enfants. According to the Response Styles Theory, people respond to a depressive state with two types of processes: mental rumination and distraction. The main objective of our study was be to validate in French the Children's Response Styles Scale. Moreover, it also aimed to determine the associations of rumination and distraction with the gender of the participants and the intensity of their depressive symptoms. In order to validate the Children's Response Styles Scale, we translated and administrated it with the Children's Engagement Scale and the Children's Depression Inventory to a total of 144 children aged 8 to 11 years old (mean = 9.48; standard-deviation = 1.06) Our statistical analyses brought out a two-dimensional factor structure, with a satisfactory internal consistency for the subscale rumination (α = 0.78; ω = 0.78) and an excellent one for the subscale distraction (α = 0.85; ω = 0.85). Furthermore, we could distinguish a greater propensity to rumination in girls, an absence of difference between the two sexes in regard to distraction, a positive correlation between rumination and depression, as well as an absence of correlation between distraction and depression. The French version of the Children's Response Styles Scale seems to be a valid and adequate scale for measuring the use of rumination and distraction in school-aged children. Moreover, our results reinforce the data previously collected in English-speaking countries and highlight the correlations between rumination and depressive symptoms, themes still little explored together in French children.

Résumé Les croyances de types a-scientifiques regroupent un ensemble d’opinions hétéroclites qui concernent le domaine de l’étrange et de l’irrationnel. L’objectif de cette étude est de construire et de valider une échelle de croyances a-scientifiques. Une analyse factorielle exploratoire a été réalisée sur 544 sujets et une analyse factorielle confirmatoire sur 528 sujets. Nous avons aussi testé la validité nomologique de l’échelle. Les résultats font émerger six dimensions : « la vie après la mort et les esprits », « la spiritualité et la santé », « les croyances religieuses », « la parapsychologie et les techniques de divination », « les superstitions traditionnelles » et les « êtres fantastiques ». Cette recherche préliminaire nous semble être un bon outil d’investigation pour tous les chercheurs et professionnels intéressés par la question des croyances sociales. Unscientific beliefs are comprised of a group of very varied opinions concerning the domain of the strange and the irrational. The aim of this study is to construct and validate a scale of unscientific beliefs. An exploratory factorial analysis was carried out on 544 subjects and a confirmatory factorial analysis on 528 subjects. The nomological validity of the scale was also tested. The results revealed six dimensions: “life after death and spirits”, “spirituality and health”, “religious beliefs”, “parapsychology and techniques of divination”, “traditional superstitions”, and “fantastic beings”. This preliminary research seems to be a useful investigative tool for all researchers and professionals interested in the subject of social beliefs. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Objectives: Studies have shown that negative attitudes on the part of mental health professionals are often held toward people suffering from borderline personality disorder (BPD). These negative attitudes heighten the risk of stigmatization and rejection of these patients. Many publications have focused on the clinicians' attitudes toward patients with personality disorders, and on the development of questionnaires meant to assess these attitudes. While some of these questionnaires have used semi-structured interviews in a qualitative framework, others have resorted to quantitative questionnaires. However, only one of these instruments has been developed with the specific purpose of evaluating the clinicians' attitudes toward patients with BPD. The existing measures, developed in English, were validated among clinicians working outside Quebec. The present study exposes a factor analysis and preliminary validation of a French language instrument specifically designed to measure mental health professionals' attitudes toward patients with BPD. Method: A multidimensional and attitudinal model was chosen for the development of the scale. Twenty items were elaborated by Bouchard and grouped into four different scales: Negative attitudes (four items), Positive attitudes (five items), Caretaking necessity (five items), and False perceptions about BPD (six items). A total of 416 mental health professionals completed the questionnaire. Demographic data is available for 236 participants (178 women): mean age is 42, 1 year and 70% are university graduates. Results: Preliminary factor analysis confirmed the existence of two main factors. The scales Positive attitudes and Negative attitude were grouped into factor 1, which was labelled Comfort when interacting with someone who has BPD. The items associated with the scales Caretaking necessity and False perceptions about BPD were grouped into factor 2, labelled Positives perceptions about BPD. The internal consistency indexes of the scale as well as the two distinct factors are satisfactory. Linear regressions were computed in order to assess whether sex, age, and level of education of participants are good predictors for the total score of the scale but the results are not significant; these variables are not good predictors for the total score of the scale. Conclusion: Results constitute a first step toward the validation of a measure of the attitudes towards people with a diagnosis of BPD. The instrument could be also used to assess the effect of training workshops aimed to change mental health professionals' attitudes toward this clinical population. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Le but de cette recherche est de valider un questionnaire de motivation à l’égard de l’orthographe lexicale (EMO). Selon la théorie de l’autodétermination (Deci & Ryan, 1985, 2000), une personne peut être animée par différents types de motivation lorsqu’elle pratique une activité. Dans cette étude, nous avons mesuré la motivation intrinsèque, la motivation extrinsèque par régulation identifiée et la motivation extrinsèque par régulation contrôlée. Les propriétés psychométriques de cette échelle ont été évaluées dans le cadre d’une étude menée auprès de 242 élèves de 6e année du primaire. Les résultats d’une analyse factorielle confirmatoire appuient la structure à trois facteurs. Ces résultats apportent ainsi un soutien à la validité et à la fidélité de l’EMO pour une population d’élèves francophones du primaire.

Cet article présente les résultats d’une étude ayant pour objectif la construction et la validation d’une nouvelle échelle de mesure des négociations perçues entre le professeur et ses élèves en éducation physique (ENPEP). La fidélité et la validité de cette échelle ont été vérifiées auprès d’un échantillon de 549 élèves de l’enseignement secondaire supérieur en Belgique francophone. Les résultats révèlent que l’échelle possède une bonne cohérence interne et une structure factorielle conforme au cadre conceptuel postulé. Ce dernier distingue trois formes de négociation : la négociation distributive en faveur du professeur, la négociation distributive en faveur des élèves et la négociation intégrative. Cette échelle constitue un instrument pouvant être utilisé pour étudier l’activité de négociation en éducation physique, ses déterminants et ses effets.

The objective of this study was to design a valid and reliable scale for the assessment of sexual assertiveness in university students. At a first phase, a documental research for the construction of the items was conducted. The first version of the escale, consisting of 50 items, was piloted in 50 people. Five items were eliminated because of their complexity and because they weren't considered adequate for the scale. Validation by judges modified 7 items. For the validity study, the scale was applied to 250 people (125 men and 125 women, with a mean age of 20). Reliability was tested using Cronbach's coefficient alpha, which was equal to .8397, thus indicating a high stability. Validity was determined through factor analysis and the principal component procedure, obtaining 13 factors that account for 67.304% of the total variance. It is concluded that this scale is a valid and reliable tool for research and clinical purposes. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
