“…The eight-item Grit-S has become a popular tool to measure grit across nations. The Grit-S scale has been the subject of a few validation studies and has been translated into, for example, German (Schmidt et al, 2017), Spanish (Arco-Tirado et al, 2018), and Polish (Wyszyńska et al, 2017). Within applied studies, the Grit-S scale has successively produced various factor structures ranging from an overall one factor model, to a threefactor model (Datu et al, 2015;Hatchimonji, 2016).…”

The Psychometric Properties of the Grit-O Scale Within the Twente Region in Netherlands: An ICM-CFA vs. ESEM Approach

The purpose of this study was to examine the psychometric properties (i.e., factorial validity, measurement invariance, and reliability) of the Grit-Original scale (Grit-O) within the Netherlands. The Grit-O scale was subjected to a competing measurement modeling strategy that sequentially compared both independent cluster model confirmatory factor analytical-and exploratory structural equation modeling approaches. The results showed that both a two first order, bi-factor structure as well as a less restrictive two factor ESEM factorial structure best-fitted the data. The instrument showed to be reliable at both a lower-(Cronbach's alpha) and upperlevel (composite reliability) limit. However, measurement invariance between genders could only be established for the B-ICM-CFA model. Finally, concurrent validity was established through relating the GRIT-O to task performance. The linear use of the Grit-O scale should therefore carefully be considered.

“…One possible explanation is that item 2 contains double negative words (e.g., don't discourage) thus difficult for non-native English speakers to comprehend the meaning of the item (Lavrakas, 2008). In line with this assumption, item 2 was found acceptable in the translated versions of Grit-S (e.g., Li et al, 2018;Nishikawa et al, 2015;Schmidt et al, 2017;Wyszyńska et al, 2017). Moreover, Muenks et al (2017) found that item 2 was found acceptable for American college students but not high school students.…”

“…Li and colleagues (2018) indicated that the Chinese version of Grit-S is suitable for adolescents in China. In addition, the German version (Schmidt, Fleckenstein, Retelsdorf, Eskreis-Winkler, & Möller, 2017), Japanese version (Nishikawa, Okugami, & Amemiya, 2015), and Polish version (Wyszyńska, Ponikiewska, Karaś, Najderska, & Rogoza, 2017) of Grit-S also supported by the two-factor model. Datu et al (2016) carried out a study to validate the Grit-S among college and high school students in the Philippines.…”

The 8-item Short Grit Scale (Grit-S; Duckworth & Quinn, 2009) is a measure of the two aspects of grit: consistency of interests and perseverance of effort. While the majority of the past studies supported the two-factor model, some found cultural differences. Two studies were carried out to test the factor structure of the GritS in a sample of Malaysian undergraduate students (total N = 1109). Exploratory factor analysis (Study 1) revealed two factors. Item 2 for perseverance subscale was removed due to unsatisfactory factor loading. Further analysis of the seven items supported the two-factor model. Confirmatory factor analyses (Study 2) supported the superiority of the two correlated-factor model with 7 items. Moreover, the consistency and perseverance scores showed acceptable internal consistency. The current research contributes to the literature by lending further support to the theoretical two-factor structure of the GritS and revealing potential cultural differences in the items. Future studies are thus recommended to address these cultural differences and confirm the usability of the 7-item GritS in the Malaysian context.

“…Following the work of , the Grit-S has been formally translated into Japanese (Nishikawa et al, 2015), Turkish (Sarıçam et al, 2015), Filipino (Datu et al, 2016), German (Schmidt et al, 2017), Polish (Wyszyńska et al, 2017), Spanish (Arco-Tirado et al, 2018), and Chinese (Wang et al, 2017;Li et al, 2018;Zhong et al, 2018). Overall, cross-sectional data show that each version of the Grit-S has acceptable psychometric properties and that each translation resembles the English-speaking version (see Table 1).…”

Longitudinal Invariance Analysis of the Short Grit Scale in Chinese Young Adults

et al. 2020

The current study examined the longitudinal measurement invariance (LMI) of the Short Grit Scale (Grit-S) in a survey sample of Chinese young adults (N = 233, 48.9% male, mean age = 19.36 years, SD = 0.90 years) who completed the GritS twice over a 3-month interval. Confirmatory factor analysis was conducted to examine the LMI of the GritS across time. Results showed that the GritS has strict longitudinal invariance (i.e., equality of factor patterns, factor loadings, item intercepts, and item uniqueness for all items) over time. Additionally, the internal consistency indices of the GritS were acceptable across time, the stability coefficients over time were moderate, and latent factor means did not differ significantly across time. In sum, these findings suggest that the GritS has satisfactory longitudinal properties when used in Chinese young adults.
