評估HEXACO人格量表的跨文化適用性與效度

Assessing the Cross-Cultural Applicability and Validity of the HEXACO Personality Inventory

本研究旨在評估HEXACO人格量表之跨文化適用性的品質和效益。研究者透過文獻分析法，檢索了460篇相關文獻，最後篩選出10篇不同語言的信效度研究進行分析。結果發現，HEXACO量表在不同國家應用時具有良好的內部一致性信度（.64至 .92），儘管因測驗長度不同而有些許起伏。HEXACO六因素結構通過探索性因素分析獲得支持，解釋量在44.1%至58.4%之間。各因素間具區辨效度，與大五人格中的外向性、嚴謹性、開放性及友善性具中高相關。值得注意的是，HEXACO獨特的第六因素「誠實–謙遜」捕捉了大五人格模型未包含的面向。綜合而言，HEXACO量表具跨文化適用性，但部分譯本題目需要再修正；在四個版本中，可優先考量使用HEXOCA-PI-R或HEXACO-100；建議國內諮商實務工作者使用HEXOCA量表針對求助個案進行評估，做為個案概念化及諮商介入之依據；未來亦可持續針對華人進行探究，做為跨文化人格理論與華人本土化人格理論之對話橋樑。

 

This study aimed to preliminarily assess the cross-cultural applicability and validity of the HEXACO personality inventory. The researchers utilized a literature analysis method, retrieving 460 related studies, and finally selected 10 studies in different languages analyzing reliability and validity. Results indicated that the HEXACO inventory demonstrated good internal consistency reliability (.64-.92) when applied in different countries, despite some fluctuations due to varied test length. The six-factor structure of HEXACO was supported through exploratory factor analysis, with explained variance between 44.1% and 58.4%. The factors showed discriminant validity and moderate to high correlations with Extraversion, Conscientiousness, Openness and Agreeableness in the Big Five model. Notably, the unique sixth factor of HEXACO, ""Honesty-Humility,"" captured aspects not included in the Big Five model. In summary, the HEXACO scale has cross-cultural applicability, but some of the translated questions need to be revised. Among the four versions, HEXOCA-PI-R or HEXACO-100 can be given priority. It is recommended that counseling practitioners could use the HEXOCA scale to evaluate clients as a basis for case conceptualization and intervention. In the future, it is recommended to continue to conduct research on Chinese people as a bridge for dialogue between cross-cultural personality theory and localized personality theory.
