Validation of the Learning Self-Regulation Questionnaire: The Peruvian Case

Abstract

This research aims to validate the instrument called Learning Self-Regulation Questionnaire adjusted to the Peruvian context, for which reliability and validity analyses were carried out. Cronbach's alpha, McDonald's Omega, and ordinal alpha were used to test its reliability for construct validity. The instrument was applied to 355 university students enrolled in in-person, blended, and e-learning modalities and comprised 47 Likert scale 5-point questions. The results obtained from Cronbach's alpha, McDonald's Omega, and ordinal alpha were above 0.7 and 0.8 for all constructs, which indicates that the instrument is reliable for obtaining responses on the dimensions mentioned in the questionnaire, while the model presented good overall fit indices. In conclusion, the results presented herein show good validity and reliability, thus making this instrument use feasible. © 2023 Copyright for this paper by its authors.
