Abstract The current study aimed to investigate the psychometric characteristics of the mindsets of intelligence scale （MIS） in Chinese adolescents. A total of 977 students in the seventh and eighth grades of junior high schools completed the MIS. The revised achievement goal questionnaire, effort beliefs scale and positive psychological capital questionnaire were also completed as the criterion measurements. The reliability analysis showed that the translated MIS had good internal consistency and test-retest reliability, and the item analysis presented that all items had good discrimination and normal scores distribution. The two factor structure of the scale was supported by both exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis. Furthermore, the MIS with first person expression had better criterion validity compared with the second person expression’s scale. These results illustrate fine psychometric characteristics of MIS in Chinese adolescents, and provide implications for the investigation of Mindsets as well.
