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.enNamensnennung 4.0 Internationalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/150 PsychologiePSPP-RTranslationTest developmentGermanyPhysical self-perceptionKörperliche SelbstwahrnehmungArticlehttps://doi.org/10.1027/2698-1866/a000059urn:nbn:de:hbz:467-27016
