초등학생용 자기성찰 척도(SRS) 개발 및 타당화

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to develop a Self-Reflection Scale(SRS) for upper grade elementary school students in the elementary school in South Korea. This study was made up of 8 steps. The first step was to investigate the related researches and theories in the conception of self-reflection. The second step was to construct the operational conception of self-reflection into 5 factors. The third step was to develop 160 items related to self-reflection. As the fourth step, to verify the content validity, 8 elementary school teachers modified the above 160 items into 156 items. 156 items were revised by five 6th grade students. The fifth step was to determine a preliminary scale consisted of 149 items. As the sixth step, a preliminary scale was tested from 219 6th grade students. As seventh step, the data collected from 219 samples were analyzed to identify sub-factors. 112 items were extracted and 5 sub-factors were identified as the results: examinative reflection, existential reflection, dialogical reflection, empathetic reflection, inquiritivel reflection. To examine the stability of the factor structure of the 112-item measurement model, a confirmatory factor analysis with a maximum likelihood estimation method was conducted in AMOS 7.0, and 5 factors were identified. The fit indices for the 112-item 5-factor model were as follows: χ2(df=269, N=219) =1753.37, p=.000; Normed χ2 = 1.985; AGFI = .937; CFI = .928; GFI = .941; RMSEA = .047(at 90% confidence intervals, .043-.057); SRMR= .036. To examine internal consistency and split-half reliability, data were collected from the samples of 291 elementary school students. The result showed high internal consistency(Cronbach's α= .975), split-half reliability(r= .856). To examine the discriminant validity and convergent validity, data were collected from the samples of 291 elementary school students. The result showed that self-reflection scale was positively related to intrapersonal intelligence assessment scale(r= .500) and negatively related to aggression scale(r= -.397). As the eighth step, SRS was developed and 112 items were determined. In conclusion, this instrument demonstrated satisfactory reliability and validity. Therefore, it is an appropriate measurement of a self-reflection for upper grade elementary school students in South Korea.
