ROQUE HERNANDEZ, Ramón Ventura. Design of an instrument to measure the acceptance and perceived benefits of pair programming in university courses. Acta univ [online]. 2020, vol.30, e2877.  Epub 26-Mar-2021. ISSN 2007-9621.  https://doi.org/10.15174/au.2020.2877.

The design and validation of a questionnaire aimed at measuring the acceptance of pair programming and the benefits perceived by students who use it in the university educational context are presented. The process included the discovery of these two latent factors through exploratory factor analysis and their ratification through confirmatory factor analysis. It was possible to obtain adequate model fit values of the model (CMIN/DF = 1.15, CFI = 0.98, SRMR = 0.08, RMSEA = 0.06, PClose = 0.39), internal consistency (Acceptance: CR = 0.82; Benefits: CR = 0.73), convergent validity (Acceptance: CR = 0.82, AVE = 0.61; Benefits: CR = 0.73, AVE = 0.48), and discriminant validity (HTMT = 0.72). For future work, what remains is the administration of the final version of the questionnaire presented here.
