摘要
Objectives: This study examines the psychometric properties of the German version of the Health Regulatory Focus Scale (HRFS), which measures health-related promotion- and prevention-based motivation. Methode: The study is based on data from the 28th (N = 332) and 29th survey wave (N = 253) of the Saxony Longitudinal Study. It examines item characteristics, factorial, convergent and prognostic validity as well as the influence of sociodemographic variables. Results: The psychometric properties of the German version are excellent, after removal of Item 5. A two-factor structure as well as good validity were confirmed. Conclusion: The shortened German version of the HRFS is well suited to capturing the health-related regulatory focus of this test and makes it useful in the area of health promotion and prevention.
