Adler and Fagley(2005) defined that ‘an appreciating something such as an event, a person, a behavior, and an object involves noticing and acknowledging its value and meaning and feeling a positive emotional connection to it’ and developed a multidimensional scale to measure it. The purpose of this study was to translate and adapt the Appreciation Scale to Korean culture. The results of exploratory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis confirmed that the Korean version of the Appreciation Scale consisting of six factors, including 23 items, was appropriate to the data on Korean college students. Six factors were ‘Have focus’, ‘Ritual’, ‘Expression’, ‘Nature/Daily life’, ‘Downward comparison’, and ‘Loss/Adversity’. Korean version of the Appreciation Scale and its subscale showed good internal consistency and test-retest reliability, and they displayed convergent and discriminant validities via measurement of gratitude trait, optimism, hope, spirituality, appreciation of beauty, and excellence. These scales correlated with measure of life satisfaction and emotional well-being, Especially, appreciation significantly predicted to individual happiness even after the effects of social desirability, Big-Five personality, and individual's positive traits and states were statistically controlled. Conceptualizing gratitude and exploring components of gratitude would be valuable for understanding the nature of gratitude and its effects on well-being, and suggesting more effective psychological intervention in a diverse population.
