JURADO, Perla J. et al. Factorial invariance of the Questionnaire of Attributional Styles in the area of academic achievement in Mexican university students. Acta univ [online]. 2019, vol.29, e2239. Epub 11-Set-2020. ISSN 2007-9621. https://doi.org/10.15174/au.2019.2239.
The present study analyzed the psychometric properties of the Questionnaire of Attributional Styles in the area of academic achievement; its goal is to assess the attributive patterns in the field of academic achievement adapted by Jurado, Blanco, Zueck & Peinado (2016) in men and women university students. The overall sample consisted of 1188 subjects: 626 women and 562 men, with a mean age of 20.53 ± 1.82 years and 20.83 ± 1.97 years, respectively. The psychometric analysis was applied in two stages: 1) factorial confirmatory analysis and 2) invariance factorial analysis. According to the established psychometric requirements, the factor structure, factor loadings, and intercepts of the instrument could be considered invariant across groups; however, there are differences between groups for the means of factors, attribution to luck, attribution to skill, and attribution to teacher. The results showed that a tetra-factorial structure (attribution to luck, attribution to effort, attribution to skill, and attribution to teacher) was viable and adequate for both populations (men and woman).
