Abstract

This preliminary study was conducted to verify the reliability and the validity of the Korean version of Dyadic Adjustment Scale(Spanier, 1976). For this, 136 adults(normal group=108, marital discord group=28) were selected and based on their responses, verification of reliability and validity was carried out. The internal consistency coefficients(Cronbach alpha) of each of subscales ranged from .76 to .95. Other statistical evidence was presented suggesting criterion-related validity. Overall, internal consistency and criterion-related validity was good for the Korean Dyadic Adjustment Scale. But in the result of factor analysis, the original factor structures were not replicated. Several limitations and suggestions of the present study were discussed.
