Objective To revise The Matson Evaluation of Social Skills with Youngsters (MESSY),and examine its reliability and validity. Methods The scale was translated into Chinese,revised version was obtained after item analysis and explorer factor analysis using pre-survey sample [n=209,boys 105,mean age (9.44±1.74)y].The reliability and validity were tested using formal survey sample [n=465,boys 251,mean age (9.26±1.75)y],67 children were retested 2weeks later. Results 30 items were left after item analysis.The internal consistency Cronbach'α was 0.876,the test-retest correlation coefficient was 0.75.The results of explorer factor analysis showed that 41.973% of the total variation could be explained by 3 factors.The results of confirmatory factor analysis showed that RMSEA was 0.058,and GFI was 0.87,which suggested that the model was fitted good. Conclusion The MESSY has sound validity and reliability.
