한국판 비전통적 남성성 척도(KNMI) 타당화

초록

In this study, we attempted to validate the New Masculinity Inventory (NMI) developed by Kaplan et al. (2017) as a Korean version of a nontraditional masculinity scale. To this end, the original scale was translated and back-translated to finalize the translated items. Subsequently, 210 adult males in their 20s to 50s were selected as research subjects and analyzed. The results of the analysis are as follows. First, the original nontraditional masculinity scale consisted of 17 items and 5 factors, but in this study, items that undermined the quality and reliability of the scale were excluded, resulting in a final composition of 15 items and 4 factors. Second, confirmatory factor analysis was used to reconfirm that the Korean version of the nontraditional masculinity scale had a 4-factor structure. Third, the correlation between the Korean version of the nontraditional masculinity scale and traditional masculinity was examined to verify discriminant validity. Additionally, based on previous studies, the correlation between the nontraditional masculinity scale and the feminism scale was assessed to verify criterion validity. Fourth, the test-retest reliability was verified at three-week intervals, confirming an appropriate level of reliability. Through this process, it was verified that the Korean version of the nontraditional masculinity scale is a relatively reliable and valid measure.
