Outline of Research at the Start |
The research aims to provide an instrument adapted for the Japanese population (the OSCS) with evidence for good psychometric properties of the scores which it generates. This will service the needs of future researchers in this area as well as practitioners.
|
Outline of Annual Research Achievements |
Data models were revised in view of further analyses ending up with a better-fitting model for the data than had previously been achieved. This was achieved using an alternative analysis in the confirmatory factor analysis method (using modification indexes). This was done in conjunction with one of the main collaborators. The model now presents with acceptable fit and is a balanced operationalization of the primary constructs. Other collaborators have assisted with production of the article. Most of an article which will be submitted has already been written. Final steps will be to write the last part of the article and submit it.

Current Status of Research Progress |
Current Status of Research Progress
2: Research has progressed on the whole more than it was originally planned.
Reason
Progress has been made, but revisions were necessary, and the goal will be achieved on time.
|
Strategy for Future Research Activity |
Finish the article and submit to a journal. Present revised models at a conference this year if possible.
