Abstract: university and middle school students from 9 large cities in China participated in a retest, using the Adolescent Self worth Scale designed by us. The data from 2420 students out of the total subjects were used in a comparative analysis of first order factor model, and the data from the other 2511 students were used in a confirmatory analysis of a second order factor model. The results indicated that our multi level and multi dimensional model of self worth was legitimate. This model included three levels: the global self worth, general self worth and special self worth. The global self worth had the highest level of abstraction and the general self worth which consisted of social perspective and personal perspective had secondary level of abstraction. The lowest level of abstraction was represented by special self worth which could be presented through five specific aspects of self worth such as biological, psychological, interpersonal, moral and family self worth, as well as through two perspectives such as social and personal perspectives. Our Adolescent Self worth Scale consisted of 56 items, among which 6 items belonged to global self worth. Each of the general self worth dimensions had 5 items and each of the specific aspects of special self worth had 4 items. This scale could be used to testify the proposed model of self worth different abstraction levels, different perspectives and distinct specific aspects. The construct validity was quite good in terms of both the construct of the self worth and the scale for testing the construct.

Key words: Adolescent Self worth Scale, construct validity, confirmatory factor analysis
