Abstract

The purpose of this study was to validate the Korean Forgiveness Scale-Short form (KFS-S) for high school students. The sample consisted of 1,114 10th grade students. The measures included the KFS-S, one-item forgiveness question, Heartland Forgiveness Scale (HFS), Transgression-Related Interpersonal Motivations Inventory (TRIM), Spielberger Anxiety and Anger Scale, and CES-D. The results showed that the KFS-S had a relatively good internal consistency (Cronbach’s α=.87) and an acceptable test-retest reliability (r=.73). Both explanatory and confirmatory factor analyses suggested that the KFS-S had one factor which explained 42.27% of the total variance. The KFS-S was highly correlated with the one-item forgiveness question. It also had significant correlations with other forgiveness measures (HFS and TRIM). In addition, the forgiveness group had significantly higher KFS-S scores than the non-forgiveness group. Finally, the KFS-S was negatively correlated to anger, anxiety, and depression. These results suggested that the KFS-S had good reliability and validity for high school students.
