Objective:To examine the reliability and validity of the Chinese version of the Positive and Negative Affect Scale for Children(PANAS-C) in the sample of Chinese children.Methods:652 students in grade 4-7 in Shanghai were recruited in the present study.The item analysis and confirmation factor analysis were employed to examine the discrimination of items,structure validity,criterion validity and reliability.Results:①The item analysis showed acceptable correlations between items and dimensions.②The confirmatory factor analysis showed that the constructive validity was good and fitted the bi-factorial model well.③The criterion validity was ideal that the score of the PANAS-C was significantly associated with loneliness,depression,self-esteem and peer acceptance.④The internal consistencies of the two dimensions of PANAS-C were 0.92 and 0.93.Conclusion:The Chinese version of the PANAS-C is reliable and valid in measuring children's affect in China.
