Abstract	The purpose of this article is to develop a context-bound scale on student alienation around core problems experienced by students at the university level. The confirmed dimensions of the scale shall be correlated with the dimensions of the student's ICT motive scale. The study is based on two sets of cross-sectional samples of Kashmiri university students. The initial sample (n = 204) was used in the factor analysis for item refinement. The final sample (n = 575) was used for item purification and construct validation. The final SAL model consisted of four sub-constructs namely: classroom isolation (CIS), learning discouragement (LDC), learned helplessness (LHP) and learning disinterest (LD). LD, LDC and LHP were negatively correlated with instrumental motive, whereas CIS was positively correlated with socialising motive. LDC was positively correlated with mood managing motive. The model fit of the scale and the correlation with ICT use motives indicate that study can be of significant importance in educational assessment and research. (As Provided).
