Description¶

The article recommends that institutions in developing countries measuring student global citizenship perspectives should pilot and adapt existing validated scales rather than keep original items wholesale, and validate each component's measurement model separately. The author states 'some adjustments should be made in term of social responsibility and global competence' and that future studies should involve more participants in various contexts and consider higher-order constructs.

Design Implications¶

Context¶

Requirements¶

• Access to a validated source questionnaire; PLS-SEM analysis capability; pilot testing before distribution

Constraints¶

• The author notes limited knowledge of advanced PLS-SEM models prevented higher-order construct analysis in this study

Target Learners¶

• higher education students in developing countries

Target Learning Goals¶

• evaluating global citizenship education outcomes

Related Strategies¶

• Research agenda: develop an existential hope scale, then test the framework with SEM and network analysis in longitudinal designs
