Abstract
The aim of this study is to present the validation in French of a self-efficacy scale. We created nine items and proposed this scale to 170 French (25 women and 145 men, average age 19.46) students in first and second year in scientific preparatory classes for selective postgraduate schools. A hierarchical factor solution with one common factor and two primary factors was retained. The analysis of predictive validity replicates results observed in the literature when the paths between conative variables and academic performance are investigated. Internal consistency coefficients are high and correspond to the recommended values in the literature. Our research provides sufficient evidence of validity and fidelity. Given the good psychometric qualities of the scale, we recommend it for applied use and research in particular to build support protocols for students.
