6-item Revised UCLA Loneliness Scale (RULS-6)

            RULS-6, derived from Revised UCLA Loneliness scale (Russell,1996). The RULS-6 met the criteria of unidimensionality and local independence without differential item functioning due to age and sex, and good targeting the clinical sample. Regarding reliability, RULS-6 showed to have acceptable person separation index (PSI), and the Cronbach’s alpha of the RULS-6 was good (.83). RULS-6 demonstrated convergent, discriminant validity, and concurrent validity.  

Coding and scoring

            No reversing values for item is required before summing up. The RULS-6 scores range from 6 to 24.

Interpretation

            In general, the higher the score, the more the loneliness is indicated. However, we could use the distribution of scores based on the respective sample. For example, a high vs. low level of RULS-6 score, or a level of RULS-6 among the samples could be grouped in three categories: “low” for scores below the 25th percentile, “average” for scores ranging from the 25th to the 75th percentile and “high” for scores above the 75th percentile.
