This study examined the cultural validity of the College Reasons for Living Inventory (Westefeld et al., 1992) with Asian American College Students. Data from 314 participants were collected through a web-based survey. Although the results did not replicate the six factor structure of the CSRLI as identified in Westefeld et al., partial support for the factor structure was provided. The factor structure for the CSRLI in this Asian American student sample was best represented by five factors, Survival and Coping Beliefs, College and Future Related Concerns, Responsibility to Friends and Family, Moral Objections, and Fear of Suicide. The content of the five factors emerged for this sample was nearly identical to factors one through five from Westefeld et al. The 5-factor solution accounted for 50.25% of total variance and demonstrated moderate to high coefficient alphas for the subscales (i.e., from .78 to .92). Within the 5-factor structure, results supported that the CSRLI subscales differentiate between risk and no-risk groups, in that Asian American college student participants without suicide risk scored significantly higher on the CSRLI subscales with an exception of Fear of Suicide. The convergent validity of the CSRLI subscales was also supported through significant negative relations between the subscales and depression and hopelessness. Furthermore, the CSRLI subscales accounted for 8% of the variance in suicidal behavior above and beyond what is accounted by the risk factors of depression and hopelessness alone.

520 $a This study examined the cultural validity of the College Reasons for Living Inventory (Westefeld et al., 1992) with Asian American College Students. Data from 314 participants were collected through a web-based survey. Although the results did not replicate the six factor structure of the CSRLI as identified in Westefeld et al., partial support for the factor structure was provided. The factor structure for the CSRLI in this Asian American student sample was best represented by five factors, Survival and Coping Beliefs, College and Future Related Concerns, Responsibility to Friends and Family, Moral Objections, and Fear of Suicide. The content of the five factors emerged for this sample was nearly identical to factors one through five from Westefeld et al. The 5-factor solution accounted for 50.25% of total variance and demonstrated moderate to high coefficient alphas for the subscales (i.e., from .78 to .92).

The convergent validity of the CSRLI subscales was also supported through significant negative relations between the subscales and depression and hopelessness. Furthermore, the CSRLI subscales accounted for 8% of the variance in suicidal behavior above and beyond what is accounted by the risk factors of depression and hopelessness alone.
520 $a Furthermore, results suggested that protective factors are a salient component in understanding suicidal Asian American college students. Respondents provided additional reasons for living that seemed to reflect influences grounded in a collectivistic worldview. Although acculturation was not found to be associated with any of the research variables, the cultural variables of family obligation and desire to avoid bringing shame to family were significantly correlated with Responsibility to Friends and Family. Overall, the results of this study suggest that the CSRLI is a culturally valid assessment instrument for Asian American college students.
