Résumé
This article presents a series of 4 studies on the French validation of the Rootedness Scale (McAndrew, 1998). This scale is based upon Place Attachment theory (Shumaker & Taylor, 1983), which conceives place attachment as an affective tie resulting from dynamic interactions and transactions between a person and his/her environment. It contains two subscales: Desire for change (6 items) and Home/family (4 items). More than 300 students participated in these studies. The results show that the bidimensional structure of the Rootedness Scale was supported by exploratory and confirmatory analyses. The scale has adequate levels of internal consistency and temporal stability and its construct validity wa moreover confirmed. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2019 APA, all rights reserved)
