Measuring Role Modeling Perceptions of Secondary School Students: Factor Structure and Reliability of Scale
Acta Didactica Napocensia, v17 n2 p153-168 2024
The research aims to develop a valid and reliable scale to determine secondary school students' perceptions of role modeling. The survey design model, which is a quantitative research method, was used in the research. The study's sample comprised 500 students enrolled in three secondary schools in Turkey during the 2018 spring semester. Data for confirmatory factor analysis were collected using the draft scale administered to 308 students across all levels of a secondary school in Turkey, in contrast to the sample utilized in the exploratory factor analysis during the 2018-2019 academic year. A literature review was conducted to ensure content validity, followed by the creation of a question pool that was evaluated by experts, and an analysis of item indexes was performed. Factor analyses, both exploratory and confirmatory, were performed to verify construct validity. As a result of the reliability analysis, the Role Modeling Perceptions Scale consisting of 30 questions and three factors explaining 41.96% of the variance was obtained, and the reliability coefficient was found to be 0.91 (Cronbach alpha coefficients of factors; reproduction 0.88; retention 0.84; motivation 0.75). This scale can be used to determine students' role-modeling perception levels.
