AB  - This study examined the psychometric properties of the Chinese version of the 
      Multidimensional Competitive Orientation Inventory (Ch-MCOI) in adults from 
      Mainland China. A total of 1121 participants (50.6% male; M = 28.86, SD = 8.70) 
      were recruited for this study. All participants completed the Chinese versions of 
      the MCOI, the Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC), the Warwick-Edinburgh 
      Mental Well-being Scale (WEMWBS), the Almost Perfect Scale-Revised (APS), the 
      Frost Multidimensional Perfectionism Scale (MPS-f), and the Competition Attitude 
      Scale (Ch-CAS). A subsample of 239 participants (50.6% male; M = 32.04, 
      SD = 8.13) completed the Ch-MCOI again after a two-week interval to assess 
      test-retest reliability. Exploratory Structural Equation Modeling (ESEM) yielded 
      a four-factor structure (hyper-competitive orientation, self-developmental 
      competitive orientation, anxiety-driven competition avoidance, and lack of 
      interest toward competition), which was further validated by confirmatory factor 
      analyses with a satisfactory fit. Furthermore, test-retest reliability, internal 
      consistency, and convergent and concurrent validity were also acceptable. Our 
      findings suggest that the Ch-MCOI could be a reliable and valid instrument for 
      assessing the adaptive and maladaptive facets of competitive orientations in the 
      Chinese-speaking population.
