Polish Version of Highly Sensitive Child scale

The data was used to prepare the article, the abstract of which is below: The research described herein is based on the assumptions of the sensory processing sensitivity concept and the meta framework for the concept of environmental sensitivity. The adopted theoretical framework shows that individuals differ in their sensitivity to the environment, with some being more sensitive than others. From the evolutionary perspective, it has also been assumed that sensory processing sensitivity follows a normal distribution in the population, with a minority being exceptionally or highly sensitive to environmental stimuli. We explored data from a sample of 928 young adolescents in two studies. The tool used to evaluate their sensitivity was the Highly Sensitive Child Scale, which in studies 1 and 2 had a three-factor structure. Latent class analysis was used for the interpretation of the data of the studied groups. The obtained results indicate the existence of three groups which differ significantly from each other according to the HSC result. Based on the obtained results, it may be assumed that young adolescents are divided into three groups characterized by different sensitivities and their percentage distribution is not in agreement with the research conducted to date. The acquired information has both a theoretical value and a practical applicability, prompting reflection about the different aspects of the study, such as cultural differences, changes related to the development stage and the characteristics of the evaluation tool itself. The obtained results may provide important information to decision-makers who plan support or intervention programmes at various levels of prevention.本数据集用于支撑本篇配套学术文章，其摘要如下： 本研究基于感觉加工敏感性（sensory processing sensitivity）概念与环境敏感性概念的元框架展开。所采用的理论框架表明，个体对环境的敏感性存在个体差异，部分个体的敏感性显著高于其余个体。从进化视角出发，另有假设提出，感觉加工敏感性在人群中服从正态分布，仅少数群体对环境刺激具有超常或高度敏感性。 本研究通过两项调查，对928名青少年的样本数据展开分析。用于评估其敏感性的工具为高敏感性儿童量表（Highly Sensitive Child Scale，下文简称HSC），该量表在两项调查中均呈现三因子结构。本研究采用潜类别分析对受试群体的数据进行解读。 研究结果显示，存在三组基于HSC得分存在显著差异的群体。基于上述结果可推测，青少年群体可被划分为三类敏感性特征各异的组别，且其百分比分布与既往相关研究结果并不一致。 本研究所得信息兼具理论价值与实践适用性，可引发学界对研究多维度的反思，例如文化差异、个体发展阶段相关的特征变化，以及评估工具自身的属性等。本研究结果可为各级预防体系中规划支持或干预方案的决策者提供重要参考依据。
