Subclaims¶

q3 i? Exploratory factor analysis in a sample of 313 students yielded ten distinct factors accounting for 59% of shared variance among items. → Broadbent 2023 q3 i? Confirmatory factor analysis in a non-duplicate sample of 321 students confirmed the ten factors and two superordinate factors (motivational beliefs and learning strategies). → Broadbent 2023 (2)

Evidence¶

Broadbent 2023¶

Broadbent, J., Panadero, E., Lodge, J. M., & Fuller-Tyszkiewicz, M. (2023). The self-regulation for learning online (SRL-O) questionnaire. Metacognition and Learning, 18, 135–163. https://doi.org/10.1007/s11409-022-09319-6

q3 · i? · design · r3

Exploratory factor analysis (maximum likelihood, oblique rotation) of 44 retained items in a training sample of 313 university students. The ten factors represent online self-efficacy, intrinsic and extrinsic motivation, negative achievement emotion, planning and time management, metacognition, study environment, effort regulation, social support, and task strategies; "these ten distinct factors accounted for 59% of the shared variance among these items".

"In total, these ten distinct factors accounted for 59% of the shared variance among these items."

q3 · i? · design · r2

Confirmatory factor analysis in a non-duplicate hold-out sample of 321 students validated the ten-factor solution after adding seven theoretically plausible item covariances identified via modification indices; the revised model "had acceptable fit" with CFI = 0.901 and RMSEA = 0.048.

"This revised factor structure had acceptable fit: χ 2(850) = 1478.31, p < 0.001, χ2/ df = 1.74, CFI = 0.901, RMSEA = 0.048."

Discussion¶

Related Claims¶

• The SRL-O supports both ten lower-order subscales and two superordinate factors (motivational beliefs and learning strategies) — related
• Metacognition items loaded as a single factor, and time management combined with planning, in the SRL-O structure — related
• No existing online SRL questionnaire covers the breadth of motivational beliefs and learning strategies the SRL-O covers — related
• Nine of the ten SRL-O subscales showed internal consistency above 0.70, with study environment lower (omega = 0.665) — related
