Abstract

Using Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA), this research aims to test the construct validity of Skills for Learning Questionnaire to measure the gap of skill for learning among students of vocational school in Special Region of Yogyakarta context. The researchers used Normed Chi-square (χ2/df), RMSEA (Root Mean Square Error of Approximation), Standardized RMR (Root Mean-square Residual), GFI (Goodness-of-Fit Index), NFI (Normed Fit Index), NNFI (Non-Normed Fit Index), and CFI (Comparative Fit Index) as the criteria to evaluate the overall model fit. The standardized factor loading and the t-value provide evidence of the construct validity. 26 items in the developed Skills for Learning Questionnaire instrument have loading factor > 0.3 and t-Value > 1.96 except the three first items in Communication Skill Indicator.
