Abstract
JARA BARNETT, Linda; HILARION PALOMINO, Margot and MANZANARES MEDINA, Eduardo. Evidencias de validez y confiabilidad de la Escala de Metas de Estudio (EME) en universitarios peruanos. Rev Arg Cs Comp. [online]. 2022, vol.14, n.1, pp.23-35. ISSN 1852-4206.
The objective of this instrumental study was to analyze the psychometric properties of the Study Goals Scale (EME). The sample taken was of 287 university students from Lima, (66% men), ages 18 to 26 years old (M = 19.66, SD = 1.64). A confirmatory factor analysis was performed where a structure of three factors related to goodness of fit indices is valid (CFI = .92, SRMR = .06, RMSEA = .07). In addition, positive correlations were found between the EME and the Specific Perceived Self-Efficacy Scale of Academic Situations (EAPESA), as well as with the Academic Self-regulation dimension of the Academic Procrastination Scale (EPA). The internal consistency reliability of the EME was: learning (ω = .90); achievement (ω = .88) and social reinforcement goals (ω = .88). In conclusion, the EME has appropriate evidence of validity and reliability in this sample.
