A sample of 417 young adults from Egypt participated in the present study. Participants completed an Arabic version of the Loneliness Rating Scale. The current study hypothesized that loneliness is multidimensional in nature. It was also hypothesized that given the unique cultural environment of Egypt one of the affective dimensions uncovered would have a strong “social” theme and that the remaining dimension or dimensions would reflect themes that denote a sense of dejection and depletion. The 40 affective items comprising the revised scale were analyzed via factor analysis. A two-factor solution was retained as the most statistically sound solution; one factor was labeled Intrapersonal Loneliness and the other Interpersonal Loneliness. The results support the hypotheses. |
