Psychometric Analysis of the Self-Efficacy Inventory for Multiple Intelligences-Revised (SIMI-R) in Peruvian High School Students
Journal of Educational Psychology - Propositos y Representaciones, v6 n2 p95-124 Jul-Dec 2018
The objective of this instrumental study (Ato, López & Benavente, 2013) or psychometric-type (Alarcón, 2008) was to estimate the validity and reliability of the Self-Efficacy Inventory for Multiple Intelligences-Revised (IAMI-R, Pérez & Cupani, 2008) in Peruvian students of fifth year of high school. We worked with a sample of 1304 adolescents, with an average age of 16.81, divided into two groups of 652. Reliability was calculated with the "Ordinal Alpha" (Contreras & Novoa-Muñoz, 2018) and with the "McDonald's Omega coefficient", obtaining appropriate values. The Exploratory Factor Analysis (AFE) confirms the eight factors of the original version that explain 70% of the variability of the scores. With the confirmatory factorial analysis (CFA), adjustment indices were obtained confirming this factorial structure: SSc2 = 1857.73, gl = 1047, SSc2 / gl = 1.77, RMSEA = 0.035, SRMR = 0.049, CFI = 0.915 , and TLI = 0.908. The results confirm that the IAMI-R is adequate to evaluate self-efficacy associated with multiple intelligences in Peruvian students who complete high school.
