Objective To develop the Aspiring-Unaspiring Scale(AUS)and to examine its reliability and validity.Methods The internal consistency reliability,the test-retest reliablity,the construct validity and empirical validity of AUS were examined based on 318 subjects from community.Results Two factors emerged following factor analysis.The correlations between item scores and the total score ranged from 0.291 to 0.581,and the correlations between the factor score and composites ranged from 0.337 to 0.655.Significant correlations between the AUS and the Affective Scale and Type A Behavioral Scale were found.The stability coefficients and Cronbach's coefficients of AUS were 0.5247 and 0.6486.Conclusion The validity and reliability of AUS basically meet the psychometric standard.
