Sedentary Behavior Regulation Scale (SBRS) with 12 Items and Validation Metrics

320 Korean adults participated in the validation of the 12-item Sedentary Behavior Regulation Scale (SBRS). Mi Hwa Won developed the scale in 2026 to assess strategies for managing sedentary time, showing a negative correlation with sedentary time (r = -.33). The scale demonstrated excellent internal consistency (Cronbach’s α = .87) and good test-retest reliability (ICC = .85).

Use Cases

• Validate psychometric instruments based on the reported factor analysis and reliability metrics.
• Study correlations between sedentary behavior regulation and physical activity levels based on the reported criterion validity.
• Analyze sub-factor structures (sedentary behavior management, environmental support) for targeted intervention design.
• Benchmark new health behavior scales against the reported internal consistency (α = .87) and test-retest reliability (ICC = .85).

Strengths

• Scale validated with a sample of 600 Korean adults.
• Demonstrated criterion validity with physical activity (r = .19) and sedentary time (r = -.33).
• Reported excellent internal consistency (Cronbach’s α = .87, McDonald’s omega = .87).
• Good test-retest reliability indicated by an intraclass correlation coefficient of .85.

Limitations

• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Data may reflect geographic bias inherent to the Korean adult sample.
