Abstract

This study examined psychometric properties and 1-year predictive validity of the Comprehensive Inventory of Thriving in China. In total, 556 participants in Chinese communities completed the Comprehensive Inventory of Thriving for confirmatory factor analysis. The other 533 individuals further completed the Flourishing Scale and Satisfaction With Life Scale and reported their physical and mental health 1 year later. The 18-factor correlated model showed a better goodness-of-fit than the seven-factor second-order related model. Thriving had higher correlation coefficients with depression, anxiety, stress, and doctor visits. The Comprehensive Inventory of Thriving is an efficient screening tool to differentiate the risk group from other groups and can predict health outcomes among community populations for active interventions.
