Classroom Attendance Scale (CAS) is prepared with 14 items. Prepared CAS consists of items likert type. Sample the study 318 college students who at education faculty science and primary programs along work engineering faculty. Principal axis factoring orthogonal rotation (varimax) used for exploratory factor analysis. Factor eigenvalues are obtained corrected-item total correlations were analy...

Principal axis analysis rotates principal components to optimally detect cluster structure, rotation being based on a second spectral decomposition identifying preferred axes in the sphered data. As such, it complements principal component analysis as an extremely fast, general, projection pursuit method, particularly well-suited to detecting mixtures of elliptical distributions. Examples show ...

Individual disgust reactions can be elicited through different types of sensory stimuli. Most well-known scales measuring are text-based, thus more cognitive This study aimed to validate the food scale using olfactory stimuli related food. For this, 150 participants were invited our lab rate odours for level evoked. Exploratory factor analysis (principal axis factoring) revealed two factors. Th...

Disparities in breast cancer outcomes persist among Asian American women. Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer among Chinese American women. This article describes the psychometric evaluation of an instrument measuring knowledge and beliefs related to breast cancer and screening among Chinese American women aged 40 or older. A sample of 100 foreign-born Chinese American women wer...

The purpose of this study was to evaluate a popular measure of Alzheimer's disease (AD) memory and behavior problems and to determine whether its aggressive behavior items coalesced empirically as a subscale to form a psychometrically viable AD aggression measure for clinicians. Data from self-report questionnaires were examined from 419 informal AD caregivers in the southern United States. Pri...

This study employed qualitative construct mapping and factor analysis to construct a scale to measure attitudes toward dementia. Five family caregivers, five professionals, and five college students participated in structured interviews. Qualitative analysis of the interviews led to a 46-item scale, which was reduced to 20 items following principal axis factoring with two different samples: col...
