本研究欲突破過往強項測量工具的限制，編製「成人強項量表」，並進行信效度驗證。首先回顧文獻歸納出強項，並建立預試量表進行項目分析、信度分析和探索性因素分析，篩選題目形成正式量表。正式施測以382名成人為對象，進行驗證性因素分析、效標關聯效度、信度分析，結果顯示：各分量表介於.70～.92，具良好的內部一致性。建構效度以三個二階因素：「自己」、「他人」、「事情」，與十二個一階因素：「真誠」、「做人」、「感恩」、「毅力」、「自我控制」、「自信樂觀」、「利他」、「寬恕」、「愛」、「判斷力」、「創造力」、「同理」所構成，整體適配度在可接受範圍。另以「生活滿意度量表」（SWLS）和「主觀快樂量表」（SHS）作為效標，亦展現良好的同時效度。在年齡差異分析上，單一強項有顯著差異，例如：20至29歲者在「愛」與「利他」高於30至39歲。綜合上述，本量表為具信效度之工具，可供應用於教育、心理及輔導等相關研究及實務工作中。

The researchers think out the limit of "Values in Action-Strength of Inventory (VIA-IS)" to develop and construct validity of the "New Inventory of the Chinese Strengths (NICS)". The researchers reviewed preview research, and then conducted item analysis, reliability analysis, and exploratory factor analysis in the pretest in order to select the items of NICS. After that, the researchers used 382 participants to conduct confirmatory factor analysis, criterion-related validity, and reliability analysis. Results indicated that (1) the Cronbach'α s of NICS's subscales were from .70 to .92. (2) As to construct validity, the overall indicators of NICS which consists of three second-order factors (Self, Others, Things) and 12 first-order factors (integrity, person-making, gratitude, persistence, self-regulation, confident optimism, loyalty, forgiveness, love, judgment, creativity, empathy) were mostly up to standard. (3) NICS showed adequate convergent validity with "the Satisfaction with Life Scale" and "the Chinese Version of the Subjective Happiness Scale". (4) To further analyze the age difference, people in their twenties scored higher than people in their thirties on "love" and "loyalty". Based on the above, this scale is a reliable and valid tool, which can be used in related research and practical work in education, psychology and counseling.
