Background: Suicide has been a worldwide attention's public health problem. Mostly statistic of other countries show that suicide rate of male is higher than female; City is higher than country. But there is a unique suicide mode in china, suicide rate of male is under than female; city is under than country. World Health Organization reports that suicide has been the first death cause for female of 15-years-old to 34-years-old in china. Therefore, female especially country female is the emphasis of prevention and cure in China.Theory of Suicide Stress out of line is brought forward by Professor Zhang Jie in American aim at Chinese's unique suicide mode. Herein"Strain theory"of Value Conflict Theory suppose that two kind of persist conflict concept in a body will bring stress to individual in daily life. When equality and liberty concept is accept, China female is also influenced by Chinese's traditional consciousness, So there important realistic meaning for study and check Value Conflict Theory in China.The value concept refers "The system viewpoint of the certain faith, the tendency, the position and the manner about the value, it is playing the behaviour orientation, the evaluation criteria, the appraisal principle and the criterion role". This article limits "the Chinese tradition values" as the various schools of core thoughts produce from the pre-qin eras, until now still has important influence to Chinese's behavior ,also have conflict to the modern idea; The modern values refer to the modern equality free opening values.The value concept refers to person's ideology, is the summary image of objective things which stay behind in the human brain. The value concept and the values are individual and general relations.Purpose: This research's purpose is to study"Chinese Culture of Traditional Value Conflict Inventory ", and to verify its reliability and validity. CCTVCI Will be used to discuss the mental pressure to the modern society different crowds come from the conflict of new and old concept. Accordingly makes further explanation, prevention and intervention to the question of countryside female's higher suicide rate. It will make up the measure flaw of value concept in the psychology research area, provide theory and tool support for the suicide's prevention research, the psychological consultation, the mental disease treatment and the correlated scientific research domain.Method: Based on the Inventory studyed procedure, adopted entire group delaminated method to extract 15-years-old to 60-years old of city and countryside's 4 samples as the research objects. The sample 1 uses as half structure interview or questionnaire investigation, the sample 2, 3, 4 used as Inventory's self-reply. Study Inventory's procedure as follows:1) Study the questions bank according to the literature research and the sample 1 information, the questions take pairs appearance which are mutually conflicted idea and the behavior; 2)According the questions bank to study the original Items; 3)Invite experts to make a content validity examination for the original Items, form the Original Inventory; 4)Carries on the items analysis to the Original Inventory using the sample 2 data, ascertain the Inventory items and forms the first edition Inventory; 5)The Inventory appraisal, carries on the reliability and validity examination for the first edition Inventory using the sample 3; 5)Carrie on repeat reliability analysis to the first edition Inventory using the sample 4 data;7)Formulate the Inventory reference value.Using the SPSS11.5 to study database, carries on data analysis. Uses repeat reliability to appraise the Inventory's stability, uses Spearman-Brown Split-half reliability and Cronbach alpha coefficient to appraisal Inventory's intrinsic uniform. Evaluate Inventory's content validity by the correlated experts. Using the city with country's difference validity, togetherexamination the Inventory's criterion-related validity.Result: 1,Item analysis, after the items analysis there are 26 rebirth variables was delete which occupy 25% the total items. The remains items CR > 2.0,Corrected Item-Total Correlation > 0.1, all items reach the remarkable level (P<0.05).Above show that the revised Inventory has the certain discrimination or distinction ability.2,Reliability analysis, repeat reliability show that the total score Pearson correlation coefficient is 0.830, 92.31% of other items achieve the remarkable correlation. The total Inventory alpha coefficient is 0.7452, Spearman-Brown divides in half coefficient is 0.6849. Above all show that the Inventory has the stability and the intrinsic uniformity. 3,Validity analysis, the Inventory evaluates by the expert has better content validity; Differential validity demonstrated the Women's Federation worker - student - farmer scores has the remarkable difference, farmer scores is the highest, the student scores is next, the Women's Federation worker scores is the lowest; The masculine - female scores in the Inventory has remarkable difference. Above all show that the Inventory has better differential validity.The State—Trait Anxiety Inventory's Pearson correlated coefficient is 0.134, explains two Inventorys exist correlations, but there are concept conflict cannot affirm the individual exists anxious.Conclusion:"Chinese Culture of Traditional Value Conflict Inventory"(the first edition) has better reliability and validity; It can reflect the individual's value conflict degree in a certain crowd. It fit to measure the different crowd's concept conflict of city and countryside in China. Differential validity suggests that the difference between city and countryside accord with the theory supposition, the Chinese countryside crowd confliction is bigger between individual's concept and behavior. Thus CCTVCI may be used as tool in the mental health domain. The Inventory has forecast effect to the psychology pressure which comes from individual's conflict of concept with behavior. The CCTVCI reference value, female:0~81; male:0~87.
