Measurement Invariance of the Mindful Attention Awareness Scale across Adult Attachment Style
Cordon, Shari L.; Finney, Sara J.
Measurement and Evaluation in Counseling and Development, v40 n4 p228 Jan 2008
In this study, the authors examine the measurement invariance of the Mindful Attention Awareness Scale (MAAS) across adult attachment style. A 1-factor model and measurement invariance was supported across groups. As predicted, latent mean differences showed that securely attached individuals reported significantly more mindfulness than did insecurely attached individuals, providing construct validity evidence for the MAAS. (Contains 1 figure and 4 tables.)
