Polish adaptation of the Flow Short Scale for board game players: a model based on the 3-faced construct validation method

Abstract
Participants were randomly divided into three subsamples (N1 = 115; N2 = 213; N3 = 200). Exploratory analyses were conducted on the first subsample (file: FSS_subsample_1) to examine the quality of test items. Then, in the second subsample (file: FSS_subsample_2), a total of 36 models were verified for the goodness-of-fit criteria. The CFA model with two factors, fluency and absorption - but without test items 1 and 5 - has been found to have an optimal goodness-of-fit in the third subsample (file: FSS_subsample_3). The gender measurement invariance was then cross-validated on the entire sample, indicating homogeneity of the FSS at the strict invariance level. The convergent validity of both FSS subscales with the Immersion Questionnaire, tested on the entire sample, was also confirmed.
