Abstract

This article makes an attempt to develop the Interest in Music Scale for Secondary School Students. The scale has been constructed with four points „Likert‟ type scale for each item, with 50 statements for factor determination with sample of 215 Secondary School Students. Cronbach‟s Alpha correlation technique was used to determine reliability of Interest in Learning Mathematics Scale by adopting random sampling technique. Four components were identified, and the final form of the tool consists of thirty (30) items with one third of negative items in each components. Reliability and validity were established for this tool. A general norm by adopting technique of quartiles is used to determine the levels of interest in Music.
