环境态度量表(EAI)的开发是为了评估环境态度的多维性质;然而,它是基于阿拉伯背景之外的数据集。本研究使用新数据集重新研究了 EAI 的构造有效性,并证实了其在阿拉伯背景下应用的可行性。研究 1 中的 148 名受试者和研究 2 中的 130 名受试者提供了有效的回答。研究 1 中使用探索性因子分析 (EFA) 提取新的因子结构,研究 2 中使用验证性因子分析 (CFA)。这两项研究都生成了七因子模型,并讨论了这两项研究的模型拟合。与研究1相比,研究2表现出令人满意的模型拟合指数。研究1中的一些项目的因子载荷值影响了可靠性值和平均方差提取值,这表明判别效度较低。基于 EFA 和 CFA 的结果,本研究显示了足够的模型拟合,并表明在阿拉伯背景下应用 EAI 的可行性,并具有良好的结构效度和内部一致性。
The Environmental Attitudes Inventory (EAI) was developed to evaluate the multidimensional nature of environmental attitudes; however, it is based on a dataset from outside the Arab context. This study reinvestigated the construct validity of the EAI with a new dataset and confirmed the feasibility of applying it in the Arab context. One hundred and forty-eight subjects in Study 1 and 130 in Study 2 provided valid responses. An exploratory factor analysis (EFA) was used to extract a new factor structure in Study 1, and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) was performed in Study 2. Both studies generated a seven-factor model, and the model fit was discussed for both the studies. Study 2 exhibited satisfactory model fit indices compared to Study 1. Factor loading values of a few items in Study 1 affected the reliability values and average variance extracted values, which demonstrated low discriminant validity. Based on the results of the EFA and CFA, this study showed sufficient model fit and suggested the feasibility of applying the EAI in the Arab context with a good construct validity and internal consistency.
