Description
Lu Fan's team developed a way to measure nation-love emotional fine detail, how finely people distinguish among nation-love-related feelings, rather than relying only on global self-reports. Study one built a photo-based telling-apart task, and study two created and checked a brief self-report scale.
The task index related sensibly to nation-love affect, national identity, and perceived social support. The eight-item scale showed a single-factor structure, good consistency, and factor soundness, plus added forecast of civic-feeling results. A bridging group linked the brief scale to the task index, giving teams two matching tools for studying fine nation-love emotion.
