Algılanan kurumsal destek ölçeğinin ölçüm değişmezliği: Kağıt-kalem ile online/web-tabanlı uygulamalarının karşılaştırılması

Öz

Bu araştırmada, çoklu grup doğrulayıcı faktör analizi kullanılarak Eisenberger, Huntington, Hutchison ve Sowa (1986) tarafından geliştirilmiş olan Algılanan Kurumsal Destek Ölçeğinin sekiz maddeli kısa versiyonunun online/web tabanlı ve kağıt–kalem ile uygulamaları bakımından ölçüm eşdeğerliliği/ölçüm değişmezliği test edilmiştir. Sonuçlar biçim, metrik ve skalar değişmezliğini desteklemiştir. Ölçeğin psikometrik özelliklerinin iki anket uygulama biçimi bakımından benzerlik gösterdiğine dair bulgular elde edilmiştir.

Assessing Measurement Invariance of the Survey of Perceived Organizational Support (SPOS): Paper-and-Pencil vs. Online Administrations

Öz

Using multiple-group confirmatory factor analysis (CFA), this study investigates the measurement equivalence/measurement invariance of identical online/web-based and paper-and-pencil administrations of 8-item shortened version of the Survey of Perceived Organizational Support (SPOS) developed by Eisenberger, Huntington, Hutchison, and Sowa (1986). The results provided support for configural, metric, and scalar equivalence across administration modes, indicating that the psychometric properties of the 8-item shortened version of the survey are similar whether administered as a paper-and-pencil or an online measurement instrument.
