Introduction Health professionals who work in mental healthcare settings need to use standardised, objective instruments; however, it is also extremely important that they maintain a client-focused perspective. The purpose of this study was to investigate the validity and reliability of the ‘Traditional Chinese version of the Occupational Self-Assessment’ (TC-OSA). Methods A total of 593 participants with mental illnesses participated in the study. The data were analysed using confirmatory factor analysis as well as the Rasch measurement model. Results The results of our analysis revealed that the TC-OSA encompasses four domains: self-performance (11 items), self-habituation (5 items), self-volition (5 items) and environment (8 items). Most of the items within each domain were found to have a good fit with the Rasch measurement model, whereas the CFA index was found to have a good fit for only three of the domains, the one exception being the environment domain. Conclusions We suggest applying the scale in clinical practice to identify the priority of intervention and as a measure for changes in outcomes. Further development and refinement of the environmental domain is guaranteed.

Malaysia is considered one of the developing countries undergoing rapid economic development over the past five decades. As a developing country with a rapidly growing population, providing the citizens with comprehensive and updated knowledge is crucial for the country, particularly in vocational training. A number of vocational and technical training have been developed. However, the success of vocational education relies on the capability of instructors or teacher’s approach to achieve the goals. It is important to create appropriate method that take into consideration their students’ learning styles to get better outcome. Therefore, the purpose of this paper is to develop vocational learning styles instrument. Empirical evidence on the validity and reliability of modified items has been done. A survey of 57 Electrical Technology students were distributed. The Rasch measurement model was used to examine the functional items and detect the item and respondent reliability and index separation, the polarity of item, measuring the fit of item in measuring the construct and standardised residual correlation values.

Rasch Measurement Model

Nowadays, the industrial revolution 4.0 had given a great impact on education. An active environment which applied technology in education can developed multiple skills in students. Technology Enabled/Enhanced Active Learning (TEAL) is one of the active environments that used technology in education. TEAL is the combination of several active learning domains which enhances students' understanding of learning and built job-related skills. However, students have lack of knowledge in their field which led to increase in unemployment of students. Hence, TEAL can help students in perform their practical works to develop knowledge and skills in students. This pilot study was distributed survey question about create an active and effective environment using TEAL application among the engineering students. The survey is consisted of 141 items and was distributed to 40 respondents. This pilot study used Rasch Measurement Model for measuring the validity and reliability of survey questions. Winsteps software is used to check the functionality of the item in terms of (i) Reliability and separation of respondents - items; (ii) detect the polarity items of PTMEA CORR Value; (iii) the item fit based on MNSQ Value; and (iv) Determine the dependent items based on the standardized residual value measurement correlation. The final result 109 items is suitable to use for measurement of the real study in future work.

Parenting Attitude

This study aims to conduct a validity and reliability test on the modified version of adolescent parenting attitude four factor questionnaire (APA-FFQ) with rasch measurement model. The adapted instrument consisted of 40 items based on 4 constructs namely authoritarian, authoritative, permissive and uninvolved parenting style. Some modifications have been carried out to improve the item clarity and to capture the type of maternal and paternal parenting style. Based on the sample size of 70 adolescents from one of the private higher education institution in Malaysia, the analysis revealed that all items from the modified version of APA-FFQ fits the model as the value of infor and outfit mean square (MNSQ) fell within the acceptable range of 0.50 to 1.50 with positive Point Measure Correlation (PTMEA) value. The dimensionality analysis also revealed that all items involved were measured what it supposed to measure and possessed a strong unidimensionality. Furthermore, the separation and reliability analysis showed that all items and respondents are stable and consistent when tested with different items in measuring the same construct. Therefore, the instrument can be adapted in the Malaysian educational context.

Learner Profile

Background: The International Baccalaureate Middle Years Programme (IBMYP) aims to produce a holistic transformation with creative and critically minded students. However, very little attention has been paid to the development of an instrument to measure the IB learner profile with good psychometric properties. Purpose: This study aims to develop an instrument with good psychometric properties, based on the Rasch measurement model and confirmatory factor analysis. Methods: The study consists of two phases of pilot and field studies involving 597 year four students from IBWS MOE. Results: The findings from the Rasch measurement model analysis have shown that 54 items meet the criteria of the item fit, unidimensionality, and reliability index. Meanwhile, confirmatory factor analysis found that 44 items have shown a valid item fit index. Conclusions: The combination of both analyses has shown the strength of 10IBLP-I psychometric properties that cover the aspects of validity and reliability. The findings also provide an implication to the theory, with empirical evidence that the IB learner profile consists of 10 constructs. Besides, the evidenced 10IBLP-I comprises good psychometric properties, which can be used to measure the level of IB learner profile among IBWS MOE students to assess the effectiveness of the implementation of IBMYP in Malaysia.
