This study assessed the internal consistency, validity and factor structure of a modified RSES for schoolchildren (CRSES) aged 7-12years. Methods: A total of 711 children aged 9.0±1.5 years completed the CRSES; a subset (n=417) also completed a life satisfaction (LS) scale. Data were submitted for confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) and tests of factorial invariance by sex. Two-way ANOVA compared scores by age-group and sex; whilst Pearson’s correlations examined the relationship between LS and SE. Results: Following the use of modification indices, CFA revealed that the fit for the global SE model met the criteria for all goodness of fit statistics: χ(27, n=711)=77.22; χnormed= 2.860 CFI=.961; RMSEA=.051 with 90%CI =.038-.065; SRMR=.037; and displayed respectable reliability (α = .79). The model was also factorially invariant by sex. SE scores did not vary sex (p>.05); but were significantly reduced in children aged 9-10years and 11-12years compared to children aged 7-8years. The global SE score was significantly correlated (r=-.51; P<.001) with LS. Conclusion: The CRSES can reliably examine global SE in children aged 7-12years; extending the use of the RSES to allow tracking across the life course. children self-esteem health BF dep_sres Wood Carly cjwood@essex.ac.uk University of Essex https://orcid.org/0000-0003-1723-552X Griffin Murray mgriffin@essex.ac.uk University of Essex https://orcid.org/0000-0001-6540-5250 Barton Jo jobarton@essex.ac.uk University of Essex https://orcid.org/0000-0003-3548-9478 Sandercock Gavin gavins@essex.ac.uk University of Essex https://orcid.org/0000-0002-5443-6518 Database 2016 2019 English English Wood Carly cjwood@essex.ac.uk University of Essex https://orcid.org/0000-0003-1723-552X Griffin Murray mgriffin@essex.ac.uk University of Essex https://orcid.org/0000-0001-6540-5250 Barton Jo jobarton@essex.ac.uk University of Essex https://orcid.org/0000-0003-3548-9478 Sandercock Gavin gavins@essex.ac.uk University of Essex https://orcid.org/0000-0002-5443-6518 2020-06-15 University of Essex 10.5526/ERDR-00000126 N/A United Kingdom
