An Investigation into the Structure, Validity, and Reliability of Guglielmino's Self-Directed Learning Readiness Scale.

Field, Lawrence

Adult Education Quarterly, v39 n3 p125-39 Spr 1989

Examines the structure, validity, and reliability of Guglielmino's self-directed learning readiness scale. Reviews related literature and refutes Guglielmino's thesis. Reports data derived from an administration of the scale that reveal problems in wording and show that the scale measures a homogeneous construct not associated with readiness for self-directed learning.
