Abstract

The purpose of this study was to develop the reliable and valid korean version of the Gratitude Questionnaire(GQ-6/ McCullough, Emmons, & Tsang, 2002). GQ-6 is a short, self-report measure of the disposition to experience gratitude. First, the factor structure, reliability, item property are analyzed for 269 university students. Second, criterion-related evidence of validity and incremental validity are investigated for 328 university students. The Korean version of the Gratitude Questionnaire, in a similar way as the original version, displays a stable one factor structure and high internal consistency, showing good convergent, discriminant, and incremental validity. Implications are discussed in the context of positive psychology.
