The School Counseling Program Implementation Survey: Initial Instrument Development and Exploratory Factor Analysis
Clemens, Elysia V.; Carey, John C.; Harrington, Karen M.
Professional School Counseling, v14 n2 p125-134 Dec 2010
This article details the initial development of the School Counseling Program Implementation Survey and psychometric results including reliability and factor structure. An exploratory factor analysis revealed a three-factor model that accounted for 54% of the variance of the intercorrelation matrix and a two-factor model that accounted for 47% of the variance. Cronbach's alpha reliability estimates for subscales ranged from 0.79 to 0.87. Subscales of the instrument may be used to assess ASCA National Model program implementation, programmatic orientation, school counseling services, and school counselors' use of computer software.
