Validation, Reliability, Scale, Student, ModelAbstract
The objective of the study is to validate and test the reliability of the scale of content of life circumstances and motivational aspects of the student (CVAME). For this, we use techniques of exploratory factorial analysis (AFE) and confirmatory factorial analysis (CFA). The results obtained from the model represented by Figure 3. Measurement model were considered adequate, because together, the value of 0.782 of composite reliability ("CR") and the value of 0.555 of the mean variance ("AVE") indicate acceptable values of reliability and convergent validity for the measurement model. These values show the quality of the structural model of the instrument. Given the presented results, this instrument seems very useful and allows us to affirm that it is sensitive, valid and reliable for the evaluation of the academic support received by the students, content or changes in the circumstances of the student's life during the training process, the motivational aspects of the learning experiences.
