چکیده:
This study has been done with the aim of consideration of reliability، validity and normal finding of perceived social support questionnaire. The scale was administered on 535(258 girls and 277 boys) students whom were chosen sing luster random sampling method. The reliability coefficients of the scale were determined using Cronbach’s coefficient alpha. The total reliability coefficient of questionnaire was 82%. The scales validity was measured by factor analysis. There was enough coordination among the questions and the scale’s questions were saturated by general factor، also no significant sex difference exists in the total score.

Investigating the validity, reliability, and standardization of the Social Support Questionnaire (SSQ) for secondary school students Dr. Heydar Ali Hooman 1 Dr. Sholeh Livarjani 2 Abstract 1.
In fact, this research seeks to answer the following questions: 1) Does the social support questionnaire possess sufficient validity for high school students?
In the present research, the long form of this scale was used, which includes 5 subscales: 1) support from friends consisting of 3 items.
To answer the questions and examine the reliability, validity, and norm of the social support scale, statistical methods such as indices like central tendency and dispersion, Cronbach's alpha coefficient, factor analysis methods, independent t-test, and converting raw scores to standard Z and T scores, etc.
7, and Hosseini (1375), in a study on 230 high school students while examining the relationship between social support and individual adjustment, obtained a reliability coefficient of the scale using the Cronbach's alpha method equal to 0.
Research Findings The statistical characteristics of the social support questionnaire along with its reliability coefficient are shown in Table 1.
Table 1: Reliability coefficients (homogeneity) and statistical characteristics of the social support questionnaire items Number of sample individuals 535 Number of options in the scale 25 Mean 14.
In order to answer this question, whether the subscales of the social support questionnaire saturate on a single general factor or not, the principal component analysis method was used has been used.
