Psychometric study validates Japanese versions of the Children's Perception of Interparental Conflict Scale in older adolescents, highlighting viable tools for large-scale family assessment.

Key Points

To develop and evaluate the psychometric properties of a Japanese version of the Children's Perception of Interparental Conflict Scale (CPIC-J) and its brief short form (CPIC-JS) for older adolescents.
Surveyed two independent samples of Japanese high school students aged 15–18 years (N = 335) between December 2022 and January 2023 with the translated CPIC, emotional security scales, and adjustment measures.
Tested competing structural models using confirmatory factor analysis and selected short-form items using graded response modeling combined with expert review.
Confirmatory factor analysis identified a bifactor structure as the best-fitting model, featuring a strong general interparental conflict appraisal factor and limited domain-specific factors.
Both CPIC-J and CPIC-JS scores demonstrated theoretically consistent associations with emotional security and adolescent adjustment markers, establishing convergent and criterion validity.
