自己の抑制と解放の観点による新たな大学生版セルフ・コントロール尺度の作成

抄録

In this study, we focused on self-control from two aspects, from a behavior tendency, self-restraint and self-release. With university students as subjects, we developed new scales to measure them.

By factor analysis, a Self-Restraint Control Scale consisted of “Pro-social and pro-goal self-restraint” and “Restraint of desire and impulse,” while a Self-Release Control Scale consisted of “Active distraction and rest” and “regulation of over impulse-restraint.” The internal consistency was (α = .68-.75, α = .81-.83), and the test-retest reliability was (r = .68-.80, r = .70-.75); constant reliability was indicated. Moreover, by the correlation with former measures, constant validity was indicated.

From this study, the behavioral content included in the self-control was clarified, and the viewpoint helpful for understanding the self-control was demonstrated.
