Objective: To develop the Set of School Adjustment Scales(Set-SAS) for elementary and middle school students in China. Methods: ①Based on literature review, theoretical considerations and focus group interview results, main aspects and indicator system of school adjustment were defined. ②Considering the characteristics of Chinese education system as well as students' developmental level in different grades, four versions of scales were developed to evaluate four groups of students:students in grades 1-2, grades 3-6, grades 7-9, and grades 10-12. For each version, three subscales were included:academic adjustment subscale, social adjustment subscale and individual adjustment subscale. Items were either extracted-modified if necessary-from existing scales targeting the relevant constructs, or compiled according to previous interview results. Notably, for 1st and 2nd grade, the scales were designed for class advisers to evaluate the students. ③After further abridgement and modification basing on the results of interview, item analysis and exploratory factor analysis from two pretests, formal questionnaires were formed. ④Student's Life Satisfaction Scale(SLSS), peers rating and results of the latest midterm exams were chosen for criterion validity. Results: The Cronbach's alpha coefficients of all subscales were ranged from 0.71 to 0.95, and the test-retest reliabilities were between 0.62 and 0.84. The scales had good construct validity, main dimensions of each subscale were confirmed by confirmatory factor analysis. Also the criterion validity was satisfactory. Conclusion: The Chinese Version of Set-SAS were useful tools to measure school adjustment of elementary and middle school students.
