The purpose of the current study were to translate the Dysfunctional Attitudes Scale for Children as developed by D'Alessandro and Burton (2006) to a Korean version and to investigate the factor structure of the Korean Scale (K-DAS-C) in 187 Korean 5-6thgrade elementary school children. Inconsistent results from several previous studies may have been due to the different methods of factor analysis and translation problems related to the Korean version. Therefore, an exploratory factor analysis using the maximum likelihood factor extraction was used in this study. As a result, a two-factor solution was obtained: personal standards perfectionism and self-critical perfectionism. Analyses showed that each factor from the K-DAS-C had good internal consistency and adequate seven-week interval test-retest reliability. Negative correlations between the two structure scores from the K-DAS-C and Global Self-Esteem Scale supported concurrent validity of the K-DAS-C. Particularly, scores related to self-esteem and self-critical perfectionism were more negatively correlated than personal standards perfectionism. Thus, self-critical perfectionism could be regarded as a cognitive vulnerability of depression, whereas personal standards perfectionism could not. However, these two factors could play a different role in cognitive vulnerability of depression according to age. This study established that the Korean Scale for measuring dysfunctional attitudes could be interpreted by two factors and had good reliability and validity when used for Korean 5-6th grade elementary school children. The Korean scale is expected to be useful in studies of vulnerability of depression and outcomes of preventive interventions.
