      measurement models for Japanese and Singaporeans.

AB  - The Subjective Vitality Scale (SVS: Ryan & Frederick, 1997) is a 7-item 
      self-report instrument to measure one's level of vitality and has been widely 
      used in psychological studies. However, there have been discrepancies in which 
      version of the SVS (7- or 6-item version) employed between as well as within 
      researchers. Moreover, Item 5 seems not be a good indicator of vitality from a 
      content validity perspective. Therefore, the present study aimed to evaluate the 
      validity and reliability of the SVS for Japanese and Singaporeans rigorously by 
      comparing 3 measurement models (5-, 6-, and 7-item models). To this end, the 
      scale was first translated from English to Japanese and then the Japanese and 
      English versions of the scale were administered to Japanese (n = 268) and 
      Singaporean undergraduate students (n = 289), respectively. The factorial and 
      concurrent validity of the three models were examined independently on each of 
      the samples. Furthermore, the covariance stability of the vitality responses was 
      assessed over a 4-week time period for another independent Japanese sample 
      (n = 140). The findings from this study indicated that from methodological and 
      content validity perspectives, the 5-item model is considered most preferable for 
      both language versions of the SVS.
