knowall.blog The current study assesses the factor structure and construct validity of the self-reported Inventory of Callous-Unemotional Traits (ICU) in 637 Chinese community adults (mean age = 25.98, SD = 5.79).A series of theoretical models proposed in previous studies were tested through confirmatory factor analyses.

Results indicated that a shortened form that consists of 11 items (ICU-11) to assess callousness and uncaring factors has excellent overall fit.Additionally, correlations with a wide range of external variables demonstrated that this shortened form has similar construct validity compared to the original ICU.In conclusion, our findings suggest that the ICU-11 may be a promising self-report tool that could be a good substitute for the original form to assess callous-uncaring royal nomadic 5413 rug traits in adults.
