<p>We used the samples of six studies to validate the Work Domain Satisfaction Scale (WDSS), a global, five-item and mid-level measure of work domain well-being. English and French versions of the scale were included in the studies to assess the stability of the instrument across these languages. Confirmatory factor analysis yielded a one-factor structure, which was shown invariant across languages and samples. Test-retest reliability of the scale was high, indicating that it measures a stable construct over time. Confirmatory factor analysis also provided evidence that satisfaction with work, measured with the WDSS, is related, but conceptually and empirically distinct from both life satisfaction and job satisfaction. The WDSS was also correlated in predictable ways with affective organizational commitment, a measure of how attached people are to their organizations. Work domain satisfaction also explained a significant amount of variance in affective organizational commitment, beyond job satisfaction. Moreover, the WDSS was positively related to inclusion of work into the self, a psychological variable that reflects the importance of work in the lives of individuals. The results indicate that the WDSS is a reliable, stable, and valid mid-level measure of satisfaction with work as a domain within people’s lives.</p>

Measurement Artifacts

This study empirically examined the debate in the literature regarding the dimensionality of the Organizational Commitment Questionnaire. The sample comprised 803 employees from organizations in the information technology and hospitality industries. Confirmatory factor analysis showed that the Organizational Commitment Questionnaire appears to have a two-factor structure, with one factor consisting of positively worded items and the other factor, negatively worded items. Scores on both factors correlated significantly with job satisfaction, suggesting that both factors appear to be measuring a similar aspect of organizational commitment and that they present as two factors given as measurement artifacts of the item wording.

Practical Implications

This study examined the effect of job satisfaction on organizational commitment and discipline of work, as well as determined the effect of organizational commitment to the discipline of work. This study involved the lecturers of STIE YAPAN Surabaya. Data analysis that was used in this research was the analysis of the path (path analysis) where confirmatory factor analysis was conducted previously to confirm the indicators that described the construct or variable. The results of confirmatory factor analysis proved that all of the indicators used in this study were not deleted and all the indicators were able to explain the variable job satisfaction, organizational commitment and work discipline. The results of path analysis (path analysis) explained that satisfaction effects on organizational commitment, commitment affects the discipline, and job satisfaction affects work discipline. Theoretical implication of this study is that the study supports the theory that when the lecturers feel more satisfied, they will be more commit and discipline. The practical implications of this study are expected to be a material consideration to STIE YAPAN Surabaya foundations in policy and decision making related to job satisfaction, organizational commitment and work discipline. The advice that can be given to the foundation is increasing attention to the dimensions of salary, normative commitment, and discipline work as dimensions that have bad perception.

Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk menguji validitas konstruk dari komitmen organisasi. Dalam penelitian ini, menggunakan tiga dimensi komitmen organisasi dari Allen & Meyer (1990) yaitu, komitmen afektif (affective commitment), komitmen berkelanjutan (continuance commitment) dan komitmen normatif (normative commitment) dengan jumlah total sebanyak 24 item. Sampel yang digunakan sebanyak 175 orang. Metode analisis faktor yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) dengan bantuan program lisrel 8.70 dalam pengolahan datanya. Berdasarkan perhitungan dengan metode CFA dapat disimpulkan bahwa semua dimensi memerlukan modifikasi model pengukuran untuk dapat memperoleh nilai fit. The purpose of this study is to examine the construct validity of organizational commitment. In this study, using three dimensions of organizational commitment from Allen & Meyer (1990), namely, affective commitment, continuance commitment and normative commitment with a total of 24 items. The sample used was 175 people. The factor analysis method used in this study is confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) with the help of the 8.70 lisrel program in processing the data. Based on calculations using the CFA method it can be concluded that all dimensions require modification of the measurement model to be able to obtain a fit value.

This article investigates the psychometric properties of the Revised Child Anxiety and Depression Scale (RCADS). A group of 704 adolescents completed the questionnaires in their classrooms. This study examines potential confirmatory factor analysis factor models of the RCADS as well as the relationships between the RCADS and the Screen for Child Anxiety Related Emotional Disorders-Revised (SCARED-R). A subsample of 595 adolescents also completed an anxiety questionnaire (Fear Survey Schedule for Children-Revised, FSSC-R) and a depression questionnaire (Center for Epidemiological Studies Depression Scale, CES-D). Confirmatory factor analysis of the RCADS suggests that the 6-factor model reasonably fits the data. All subscales were positively intercorrelated, with rs varying between .48 (generalized anxiety disorder-major depression disorder) and .65 (generalized anxiety disorder-social phobia/obsessive-compulsive disorder). The RCADS total score and all the RCADS scales were found to have good internal consistency (> .70). The correlations between the RCADS subscales and their SCARED-R counterparts are generally substantial. Convergent validity was found with the FSSC-R and the CES-D. The study included normal adolescents aged 10 to 19. Therefore, the findings cannot be extended to children under 10, nor to a clinical population. Altogether, the French version of the RCADS showed reasonable psychometric properties.

Abstract. Physical exercise when done excessively may have negative consequences on physical and psychological wellbeing. There exist many scales to measure this phenomenon. The purpose of this article is to create a scale measuring the problematic practice of physical exercise (PPPE Scale) by combining two assessment tools already existing in the field of exercise dependency but anchored in different approaches (EDS-R and EDQ). This research consists of three studies carried out on three independent sample populations. The first study (N = 341) tested the construct validity (exploratory factor analysis); the second study (N = 195) tested the structural validity (confirmatory factor analysis) and the third study (N = 104) tested the convergent validity (correlations) of the preliminary version of the PPPE scale. Exploratory factor analysis identified six distinct dimensions associated with exercise dependency. Furthermore, confirmatory factor analysis validated a second order model consisting of 25 items with six dimensions and four sub-dimensions. The convergent validity of this scale with other constructs (GLTEQ, EAT26, and The Big Five Inventory [BFI]) is satisfactory. The preliminary version of the PPPE must be administered to a large population to refine its psychometric properties and develop scoring norms.
