comprised of 862 high school students attending a chemistry course in different
public schools. </a> <a> </a> <a> </a> <a> </a> <a> The
construct validity </a> of the <a> </a> <a>sub-scales </a>included
in the scales were tested by confirmatory factor analysis. For
the reliability studies, the internal consistency coefficient Cronbach’s alpha
(α) values as well as McDonald’s ω (omega) coefficients were calculated <a> </a> <a>.
In addition, item-total correlations were calculated </a> <a> </a> <a>for the
reliability of each item </a>in the scales. When the confirmatory factor
analysis results were examined, it was accepted that the fit indices met the
goodness of fit criteria for both the Achievement Goal Scale and Motivated
Strategies for Learning Scale. Factor loadings of the items in both scales <a>were statistically significant </a>. These results showed that
the <a>Turkish </a> <a> </a> <a>forms of </a> </span>both scales have
enough psychometric properties in terms of validity and reliability <span lang="en-gb" xml:lang="en-gb">for a chemistry course.  </span>   </p> <p> </p>}, number={4}, publisher={Association for Measurement and Evaluation in Education and Psychology}
