Description
A 12-item short-form HL questionnaire (HLS-SF12) was developed, retaining the conceptual framework of the HLS-EU-Q47 and accounting for the high variance of the full-form. The HLS-SF12 was demonstrated to have adequate psychometric properties, including high reliability, good criterion-related validity, a moderate and high level of item-scale convergent validity, no floor or ceiling effect, and good model-data-fit throughout the populations in six countries (Indonesia, Kazakhstan, Malaysia, Myanmar, Taiwan, and Vietnam).
