چکیده

هدف از این پژوهش بررسی ویژگی‌های روان‌سنجی نسخه فارسی مقیاس ذهنی‌سازی هیجانی خود و دیگران (کسپر و همکاران، 2024) در بین دانشجویان ایرانی بود. ذهنی‌سازی هیجانی به توانایی درک و تفسیر رفتار خود و دیگران بر اساس حالات ذهنی نظیر احساسات، افکار و باورها اشاره دارد، و سنجش دقیق آن در پژوهش‌های روان‌شناسی اهمیت زیادی دارد. جامعه آماری پژوهش شامل کلیه دانشجویان دانشگاه محقق اردبیلی در سال تحصیلی ۱۴۰۳–۱۴۰۴ بود. نمونه‌ای به حجم ۲۷۲ نفر (۱۵۰ دختر و ۱۲۲ پسر) از طریق نمونه‌گیری تصادفی خوشه‌ای چندمرحله‌ای انتخاب شد. ابزارهای پژوهش شامل مقیاس ذهنی‌سازی هیجانی، مقیاس تنظیم شناختی هیجان (گارنفسکی و همکاران، 2006) و پرسشنامه سلامت عمومی (گلدبرگ، 1972) بود. داده‌ها با نرم‌افزارهای SPSS27 و AMOS24 تحلیل شدند. تحلیل عاملی اکتشافی نشان داد که سه عامل خود، دیگران و ترک ارتباط قابل‌استخراج است و درمجموع 61 درصد از واریانس نمرات را تبیین می‌کند. شاخص‌های تحلیل عاملی تاییدی نشان‌دهنده برازش قابل قبول مدل سه‌عاملی مقیاس بود (34/2=X2/df؛93/0GFI=؛ 87/0AGFI=؛ 93/0IFI=؛ 88/0NFI=؛ 92/0CFI= و 07/0=RMSEA). نتایج همبستگی پیرسون حاکی از وجود ارتباط آماری معنادار بین خرده‌مقیاس‌های این مقیاس با مقیاس تنظیم شناختی هیجان و سلامت عمومی بود. همچنین، آلفای کرونباخ برای خرده‌مقیاس‌ها در بازه 79/0 تا 87/0 به دست آمد (05/0P<). بنابراین، می‌توان نتیجه گرفت این مقیاس از روایی و پایایی مناسبی برای استفاده در دانشجویان ایرانی برخوردار است.

چکیده [English]

Aim: he present study aimed to examine the psychometric properties of the Persian version of the Self and Other Emotional Mentalization Scale (Kasper et al., 2024) among Iranian university students. Emotional mentalization refers to the ability to understand and interpret one's own and others' behaviors based on internal mental states such as emotions, thoughts, and beliefs. Accurate assessment of this construct is essential in psychological research. Methods: The statistical population included all students at the University of Mohaghegh Ardabili during the 2023–2024 academic year. A total of 272 students (150 females and 122 males) were selected using a multistage cluster random sampling method. The participants completed the Emotional Mentalization Scale, the Cognitive Emotion Regulation Questionnaire (Garnefski et al., 2006), and the General Health Questionnaire (Goldberg, 1972). Data were analyzed using SPSS27 and AMOS24 software. Results: Exploratory factor analysis identified three core components: Self, Others, and Communication, which together explained 61% of the total variance. Confirmatory factor analysis supported the three-factor model with acceptable fit indices (χ²/df = 2.34, RMSEA = 0.07, CFI = 0.92). Cronbach’s alpha coefficients for the subscales ranged from 0.79 to 0.87, and 0.89 for the total scale, indicating good internal consistency. Significant correlations were also observed between the subscales and the two external measures, supporting convergent validity (p < .05). Conclusion: the findings demonstrate that the Persian version of the Emotional Mentalization Scale is a valid and reliable instrument for use in psychological research among Iranian student populations.
