Abstract | An instrumental study was carried out, with the purpose of developing a scale for assessing academic social participation (ASP) in class in university students, and testing its psychometric properties. Students from two national universities answered the ASP scale's items online, along with a scale assessing academic social self-efficacy. Exploratory factorial analysis was applied, obtaining a three dimensional scale (including academic help seeking - AHS-, work with peers -WP-, and autonomous contribution -AC-). All three dimensions were different but significantly correlated (p < 0.01; r ranging from 0.14 to 0.41), which allows to admit academic social participation as a unified construct. Internal consistency values for all three scales (AHS [alpha] = 0.83; WP [alpha] = 0.81; AC [alpha] = 0.91) and the complete scale (ASP [alpha] = 0.88) indicate a good reliability. Correlations between sub scales and academic social self-efficacy partially support construct validity. Further studies are recommended to provide additional support on this psychometric property. Also, more specific analyses are suggested to elucidate the studied behaviors' natures. (As Provided). |
