Using the HBSC Symptom Checklist to measure junior secondary school students’ psychosomatic complaints in the Chinese Mainland: Rasch-based validation, population-based norm, and norm-referenced scoring algorithm
The Mandarin Chinese HBSC-SCL demonstrates satisfactory psychometric properties and performs well in the Chinese Mainland context. It provides concise self-reported PSC measures for junior secondary school students, potentially applicable to a broader Chinese-speaking population. Its ease of administration, scoring, and interpretation makes it suitable for routine school monitoring, large-scale population surveys, and clinical applications. Additionally, the population-based norm and norm-referenced scoring algorithm support the broader application of this version and offer new insights for interpreting PSC sum scores.
