Authors: Lydia Woodyatt and Michael Wenzel

Scale
items
There are a
total of 20 items divided among the three subscales as follows: GSF 1-7, SP
8-14, PSF 15-20.
Psychometric
properties
Woodyatt
and Wenzel (2013) reported adequate Cronbach’s alpha levels and positive correlations
with empathy and self-esteem. Griffin (2016) reported strong internal
consistency (alpha) values (GSF, 0.91; PSF, 0.80; SP 0.82). Griffin (2016) also
reported significant positive correlations between the GSF and his Decisional
Affirmation of Values scale, but only SP was significantly related (inverse) to
Griffin’s Emotional Restoration of Esteem factor.
