Psychometric Properties of the Self-as-Context Scale with a University Counseling Center Sample
Overview
This paper evaluates the psychometric properties of the Self-as-Context Scale (SACS) using a sample of 132 university counseling center students. The study finds that while the scale demonstrates reliability and known-groups validity, its previously reported two-dimensional model does not fit clinical data well, suggesting total scores are more appropriate for such populations. The resource is intended for researchers and clinicians interested in the measurement of psychological flexibility within ACT frameworks.
