摘要：In previous studies, the subjective well-being scales for Chinese citizens (SWBS-cc) including 54 and 40 items had been developed based on Chinese cultural background. These scales were applied to a sample of Shandong province, and also to another sample of six capital cities in mainland China. A brief scale consists of 20 items was developed to satisfy large-scale interview survey. Sampling from the whole country (the sample size is 5946) through CGSS, the psychometric properties of SWBS-cc20 were examined. The scale shows good reliability and validity. The standard norm sample was expanded on the whole country, and the nationwide norm of SWBS-cc20 was achieved. A more refined scale SWBS-cc including 6 items was developed for telephone survey.
