Abstract |
A new questionnaire dedicated to evaluate communication of university students is presented. We developed four communication scales using the questionnaire in order to investigate in detail our previo...us finding of increase of freshmen having a feeling of social anxiety and also to confirm recent changes of communication style in young generation which are widely rumored in Japan. Four factors of communication are derived from twenty-five questions contained in the questionnaire using a factor analysis. The four communication factors were interpreted as of fear for being hurt in communication, of good relationship with close people, of an attitude to strangers and of passivity to communication. The reliability of the four communication factor scores and also questions were tested in test-retest method. It is revealed by the reliability test that all of the four communication scales and almost all questions have significant and substantial reliability.show more
