Cronbach alpha coefficient of the inventory was found “.823”; test-retest correlation coefficient was “r=.528”. Item-total correlation co-efficiencies vary between “.229” and “.689”. Item-reminder correlation co-efficiencies’ values ranged between “.134” and “.619”. According to the results of item analysis, all item had a high discrimination index value.
