The SAAS-R: A New Instrument to Assess the School Attitudes of Students With High and Low Academic Achievement in Spain

摘要

We examined the psychometric properties of the School Attitude Assessment Survey-Revised in a Spanish population (n = 1,398). Confirmatory factor analysis procedures supported the instrument's five-factor structure. The results of discriminant analysis demonstrated the predictive power of the School Attitude Assessment Survey-Revised scales as regards academic performance. Implications for education and assessment are discussed.
