    German translation of the Revised Physical Self-Perception Profile Competence (PSPP-R Competence)

    This paper examines the validity of the competence scale of the Revised Physical Self-Perception Profile (PSPP-R Competence) in a large German sample of 1,007 predominantly female participants by assessing construct validity, discriminant and criterion validity, and reliability. The PSPP-R Competence measures four factors: Body Attractiveness, Physical Strength, Sports Competence, and Physical Condition. Confirmatory factor analyses confirmed the hypothesized correlated four-factor structure and offered support for a hierarchical factor structure. Discriminant and criterion validity analyses offered insight into the nomological net and were in line with theoretical considerations. Reliability of all subscales was estimated using Cronbach’s α and found to be good to excellent ranging from .84 to .92. Overall, this study provides support for a good adaptation of the PSPP-R in the German language and enriches previous validation studies focused mainly on factorial validity by adding discriminant and concurrent validity estimates.

    Translation and validation of the BFI-2 in a Croatian sample
    (2023)

    This paper describes the process of translation and validation of the adaptation of the Big Five Inventory-2 (BFI-2) in the Croatian language. The translation process from English to Croatian was conducted using a forward and backward translation process. The resulting adaptation was then assessed for structural and construct validity, as well as reliability on a convenience sample of 320 Croatian participants. The results showed good reliability estimates at the domain level and somewhat lower yet satisfying estimates at the facet level. Confirmatory factor analyses (CFAs) supported the proposed hierarchical structure. The BFI-2 domains and facets showed adequate construct validity, estimated via the within- and between-domain correlations of the facet scales. Overall, the preliminary results of the Croatian adaptation are satisfactory and support efforts for further improvement and assessment in a larger sample, adequate for research in personality psychology.
