摘要

Background: Mind-body interventions are used to alleviate physical and psychological symptoms. The multidimensional assessment of interoceptive awareness (MAIA), which is used to self-report the effects of mind-body interventions, is not currently available in Chinese. Purpose: This study aimed to translate the MAIA from English into Chinese (MAIA-C) and to examine the psychometric properties of the MAIA-C. Methods: This was a methodological study. The MAIA was translated forward and backward systematically, and content validity was assessed by a panel of experts. A convenience sample of adult participants with mind-body practice was recruited from social clubs in Taiwan. The MAIA-C was administered to study participants. Internal consistency and test-retest reliability were tested using Cronbach's alpha and intraclass correlation coefficient. Construct validity was assessed in two ways: using confirmatory factor analysis and using the differences between the known groups to divide the sample into two groups of highly experienced and less experienced participants. Results: The complete data for the 294 participants were analyzed. The eight-factor structure of the MAIA-C was confirmed. Cronbach's a was.91 overall and .46-.88 for the individual scales of the instrument. Intraclass correlation coefficient and composite reliability for the scales ranged from .60 to .85 and .55 to .87, respectively. The result of confirmatory factor analysis revealed a fair fit of the model to the data with a root mean square error of approximation of .076 and a comparative fit index of .95. Significant differences were found for the seven scales between the two groups. Conclusions/Implications for Practice: The MAIA-C showed acceptable reliability and validity in psychometric testing. Therefore, this scale may be used in studies that assess interoceptive awareness in Chinese-speaking populations who are undergoing mind-body interventions.

背景　身心介入可緩解生理及心理之症狀，而其介入成效可使用多維度內在感受覺察量表來評估。然而，目前缺乏該量表之中文版。目的　本研究旨在翻譯多維度內在感受覺察量表，並且測試其信度與效度。方法　本研究採方法學研究設計，以系統性翻譯及回覆翻譯量表，並由專家群評估內容效度。研究對象為參與身心活動社團的成人，採方便取樣。內在一致性及再測信度分別以Cronbach's α及組內相關係數呈現。建構效度採驗證性因素分析，並檢定經驗多與經驗少的身心活動已知族群的差異。結果　以294位參與者的資料確認中文版多維度內在感受覺察量表共有八構面。整體量表及各次量表的Cronbach's α分別為.91及.46∼.88。組內相關係數及組合信度分別為.60∼.85及.55∼.87。驗證性因素分析呈現適配結果，近似誤差均方根及比較適配指標分別為.076及.95。經驗多與經驗少的身心活動參與者在七個次量表有顯著差異。結論／實務應用　中文版多維度內在感受覺察量表具有可接受的信度與效度，且可用於華語族群之身心介入後的內在感受覺察評估。
