The existing scales for measuring balanced time perspective (BTP) have limitations, such as poor-fitting structures or a complex calculation method. Based on previous studies, we conceptualize BTP an individual's overall positive outlook the past and future mindfully living in present. present study aimed to develop Time Perspective Inventory (TPI) Chinese adults, determine its psychometric properties, examine simple method generating score represent BTP. In 1, 7-factor structure of TPI - Past Positive, Negative, Mindful Present, Present Hedonistic, Excessively Task-oriented, Future Negative was established through exploratory (sample N = 529) confirmatory 2, 577) factor analyses. Findings supported internal consistency, test-retest reliability, criterion-related validity TPI. We proposed using difference between perspectives negative calculate showed that correlations subjective well-being indicators anxiety were higher than among individual dimensions Study 2 3, 713) compared effects version Zimbardo (ZTPI-C) anxiety. Results indicated variance life satisfaction, affect, explained by measured with deviation from (DBTP) ZTPI-C. Together, yields reliable valid scores adults.
