Action orientation has been defined as the ability to exert volitional control over one's feeling, which has a greater tendency to move into volitional action. In contract, state orientation has been defined as the inability to exert volitional control over one's feeling, which has a greater tendency of no action. The purpose of this study was to examine re-test reliability and internal validity of a Japanese version of the Action Control Scale (ACS90) that had been developed as a scale for personality characteristics (action orientation/state orientation) . Since then, few studies have been conducted using Japanese version of ACS90, and there is a problem that the subscales of Japanese version of ACS 90 and ACS90 are slightly different. Additionally, ten years have passed since Japanese version of ACS90 introduction, during which subjects may have been influenced by the changes in the social situation. From these reasons, this study was implemented for additional assessment of Japanese version of ACS90.A survey was conducted in 339 university students in July, 2004. Factor analyses for Japanese version of ACS90 were performed. Then, 3 factors were extracted from Japanese version of ACS90 similarly to the previous studies. It had high reliability and internal validity. However, an item of low factor loading and an item of high factor loading different from the factor designated by the ACS90 developer were also extracted. The scale seemed to be useful at large because the results matched ACS 90 and Japanese version of ACS90. However, the judgments were different between the ACS90 developer and the Japanese version of ACS90 maker concerning the choice of some items. A further detailed investigation is required in terms of items of the subscales.For behavior modifications by health education, volitional emotional controls are important. Health education considering the personality of each participant may elicit more efficient and appropriate health behaviors. The relationship of the scale with concrete health behaviors should be investigated further. 活動指向性とは感情を効率よく自己制御し, 意図的に行動しやすい傾向である.一方, 状態指向性とは感情制御が困難であり, 意図に行動が伴わない傾向をもつとされる.本研究の目的は, 活動を統制する個人の特性 (活動指向性/状態指向性) の測定尺度として開発されたAction Control Scale (ACS90) の日本語版の再テスト信頼性と内的妥当性を検討することである.日本語版ACS90には先行研究が少なく, 日本語版と原版で下位尺度に相違があるなどいくつかの問題点がある.また, 日本語版ACS90作成後10年が経過しており, 対象者が社会情勢の変化によって影響されたことも考えられた.このことから本研究では日本語版ACS90の追試研究を行った.調査は2004年7月, 4年制大学の男女学生339名に実施した.因子分析の結果, 先行研究と同様に3因子が抽出され, 高い信頼性と内的妥当性が示された.しかし, 因子負荷量の低い1項目と, ACS90原版の開発者の設定とは別の因子に高い負荷量を示す1項目が抽出された.これらは概ね先行研究と合致していたが, いくつかの項目についてACS90原版の開発者と日本語版ACS90の作成者で判定が異なっており, 下位尺度項目については今後も検討が必要である.健康教育による行動変容には意図的な感情のコントロールが不可欠である.対象者の特性を考慮した健康教育は, より効率的で適切な健康行動を引き出す可能性があり, 今後はこの尺度と具体的な健康行動との関連についてさらに検討してゆく必要がある.
