This study developed a reliable 80-item mood scale in Japanese, measuring eight distinct emotional states. The new instrument offers a validated tool for assessing diverse mood experiences.

Area of Science:

  • Psychological assessment
  • Affective science
  • Psychometrics

Context:

  • Measuring momentary mood states is crucial in psychological research.
  • Existing mood assessment tools may not adequately capture the nuances of affective experiences across cultures.
  • Development of culturally relevant psychological instruments is essential for accurate assessment.

Purpose:

  • To construct and validate a self-report instrument for measuring multiple mood states in the Japanese population.
  • To identify reliable factors representing distinct mood dimensions.
  • To create a set of psychometrically sound mood scales.

Summary:

  • A pool of 648 Japanese affect adjectives was initially collected.
  • Factor analyses on ratings from 1,254 undergraduates identified 131 key items.

Related Experiment Videos

  • Further analysis of these 131 items by 1,768 undergraduates resulted in eight reliable 10-item mood scales: Depression (Anxiety), Hostility, Boredom, Liveliness, Well Being, Friendliness, Concentration, and Startle.

    • Impact:

    • The validated 80-item mood scale provides a culturally specific tool for assessing eight distinct mood states.
    • This instrument can be utilized in psychological research and clinical settings for a more nuanced understanding of affective experiences.
    • The study contributes to cross-cultural mood assessment by offering a reliable Japanese mood scale.
