Abstract

The purpose of this study was to validate the Chinese version of the psychological well-being (PWB) scale for undergraduates in China. A total of 704 participants were recruited for the current study. The results of this study showed that all items of PWB scale were medium difficulty, were suitable for undergraduates in China, and were productive to PWB. Second, all items existed measurement equivalence across sex. Third, the six-factor model of PWB was supported with adequate multiple model-fit indices. Finally, we suggested that future research could use the unidimensional model of PWB by item parceling approach in the structural equation modeling.
