Validity Evidence of the Academic Situation-Specific Perceived Self-Efficacy Scale (EAPESA)

This study employs a Rasch analysis to present the psychometric properties of the Academic Situation-Specific Perceived Self-Efficacy Scale (EAPESA, in Spanish) in students at a Spanish university. Construct validity, measurement and person reliability, the functioning of the Likert scale, and diffe...

Construct validity, measurement and person reliability, the functioning of the Likert scale, and differential item functioning (DIF) were all explored, producing evidence of discriminant validity in regard to a measurement of academic procrastination and criterion validity in relation to performance. The sample comprised 443 university students from the first to fourth years of three degree programs. Adequate reliability and Likert scale values were found, as was a good fit to the Rasch model. However, evidence was also found to suggest that construct validity could be improved and that DIF by degree program may be present in one item. Se presentan las características psicométricas de la Escala de Autoeficacia Percibida Específica de Situaciones Académicas (EAPESA) en alumnado universitario español mediante análisis Rasch. Se explora la validez de constructo, la confiabilidad de la medida y de las personas, el funcionamiento de la escala Likert y el comportamiento diferencial de los ítems (DIF). Se obtuvo evidencia de la validez discriminante frente a una medida de procrastinación académica y validez de criterio frente al rendimiento. La muestra estuvo constituida por 443 universitarios de tres titulaciones, entre primer y cuarto año. Se encontraron valores adecuados de confiabilidad y de la escala Likert así como un buen ajuste al modelo Rasch. Sin embargo, se encontró evidencia de la posibilidad de mejorar la validez de constructo y de un posible DIF por titulación en un ítem. Universidad Autónoma de Baja California.
