Most measurements of sensitivity focus on specific domains. The present study aimed to revise a scale that measures a broader concept of psychological sensitivity and ensure its applicability in the Chinese cultural context. We validated and assessed the psychometric properties of the Chinese version of the Lynn and Accardi Sensitivity Scale (LASS) in a non-clinical sample of Chinese university students. The LASS was translated into Chinese and back-translated. Confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) was used to test the 3-factor structure of the LASS (Negative Self-Evaluation, Emotional Sensitivity, Social Approval). Subsequently, its reliability and validity were examined (Sample 1: n = 622, Subsample 2: n = 38). CFA provided support for the 3-factor model. The LASS-Ch demonstrated good internal consistency and test-retest reliability. The correlations between the LASS-Ch and established scales (Highly Sensitive Person Scale, Emotional Intensity Scale, Social Interpersonal Anxiety Scale, Interpersonal Sensitivity Measure, Eysenck Personality Questionnaire-RSC, Patient Health Questionnaire-9) provided preliminary evidence of convergent and discriminant validity. The results of this study indicate that the LASS-Ch possesses good psychometric properties and is an effective and reliable tool for assessing psychological sensitivity in the Chinese cultural context.
