CONSTRUCT VALIDITY OF THE SCALE OF THE PERCEIVED SOCIABILITY OF ONLINE LEARNING ENVIRONMENT IN COMPUTER SUPPORTED COLLABORATIVE LEARNING ENVIRONMENTS
Abstract
The main aim of the study is to test construct validity of “The Scale of
The Perceived Sociability of Online Learning Environment (SPSO)”, developed
by Kreijns, Kirshner, Jochems and VanBuuren (2007) and adapted to Turkish
culture for online learning environments by Bardakci (2010) in computer supported
collaborative learning (CSCL) environments. The scale consists of ten
five-point-Likert type items under a single factor, and all of the items positively
contribute to the total score. The research data is collected from 158 undergraduates
from Ankara University, Gazi University, Marmara University and Van
Yuzuncu Yil University, participating in a CSCL environment application in the
2008-2009 academic year. Confirmatory factor analysis is applied to the
obtained data. According to results SPSO exactly maintains the construct shown
by Kreijns and et al. (2007) and Bardakci (2010) in CSCL environments. In the
research, both The Cronbach Alpha internal consistency coefficient and The
Sperman-Brown split- half coefficient of the scale items are found as .92.
