Evidence of the Existence of Noctcaelador across Three Measures: A Factor Analytic Study
Kelly, William E.
Journal of Instructional Psychology, v33 n4 p261-262 Dec 2006
This study factor analytically examined the convergence of three questionnaires used in previous research to measure night-sky related attitudes and behaviors in a sample of 72 college students. One factor emerged accounting for the majority of variance in responses. It was concluded that the single factor found across separate measures used in previous research appear to assess the higher-order construct known as noctcaelador.
