RELIABILITY AND VALIDITY OF A MEASURE OF PERCEIVED COLLECTIVE FAMILY EFFICACY BELIEFS FOR FILIPINO ADOLESCENTS
Journal Title: Asian Journal Social Sciences & Humanities - Year 2013, Vol 2, Issue 3
Abstract
This study examined the psychometric properties of the Revised-Family Collective Efficacy Questionnaire (RFCEQ), a revised version of a previously developed measure of perceived collective efficacy beliefs. Content validation was performed to establish that the items of the scale were consistent with the concept of collective family efficacy beliefs. The scale was then administered with a sample of 774 Filipino adolescents. The factorial validity of RFCEQ was determined using exploratory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis, while reliability estimates were determined through Cronbach alpha. EFA and CFA results supported a two-factor structure for the RFCEQ. In general, results of the analyses provided evidence that the RFCEQ is a valid and reliable measure of Filipino adolescents’ perceived collective family efficacy beliefs.
