An analysis of the research results has been conducted as part of the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences program (SPSS). It included a factor analysis and determined the reliability as well as external and internal accuracy of the cultural participation styles scale. The reliability coefiicient – the Cronbach’s Alpha – approached high values. It came out at 0,95 for the subjective style of participation, and at 0,88 for the objective style. The internal validity of the scale has been confirmed by the Pearson correlation coefficient. It came out at r= - 0,79. The values reflecting the correlation between the analyzed styles and the subjective dimension of the quality of live, have proved satisfactory as well, and confirmed the internal validity of the instrument. They came out at r= 0,45 for the subjective style of participation, and at r= -0,38 for the objective style. The scale suggestion includes 54 statements grouped in two main dimensions: the subjective and objective cultural participation styles.
