Abstract

As there are not enough measurement instruments to assess emotions during epistemic activities, this research aimed to evaluate the psychometric properties of the epistemic emotions scale among speakers of the Persian language. The scale has previously been used and studied in different cultural contexts. The present study sought to expand the application of this scale in the Iranian context. A total of 1153 students (58.6% women) within the age range of 17 to 29 years participated in this study. The mean and standard deviation of the age of the participants were 21.63 and 2.24, respectively. The data collection tools in this study were the Epistemic Emotions Scale, the Achievement Emotions Questionnaire, the Academic Buoyancy Scale, and the Academic Satisfaction Scale. CFA was performed to test the factorial structure (?2 = 1895.96, df = 394, GFI = .86, CFI = .97, IFI = .97, NFI = .97, NNFI = .96, SRMR = .069, and RMSEA = .086) and its validity and reliability were also evaluated. The seven-factor model of the Epistemic Emotions Scale was the same as that of the original scale version, and the Epistemic Emotions Scale showed good internal consistency with Cronbach's alpha for this scale ranging from .85 to .88.. The results showed that the EES scores also correlated in expected directions with measures of related constructs included in this study thus also supporting the external validity of this version of the scale. We can conclude that the Epistemic Emotions Scale is a valid and reliable tool for measuring students' epistemic emotions, and as a result, researchers can use this tool for research purposes.
认知活动中的情绪测量:波斯认知情绪量表的心理测量验证
由于没有足够的测量工具来评估认知活动中的情绪,本研究旨在评估波斯语使用者认知情绪量表的心理测量特性。该量表以前在不同的文化背景下被使用和研究。本研究力求扩大这一比额表在伊朗情况下的应用。共有1153名年龄在17 - 29岁之间的学生参与了本研究,其中女性占58.6%。参与者年龄的均值和标准差分别为21.63和2.24。本研究的数据收集工具为认知情绪量表、成就情绪问卷、学业浮力量表和学业满意度量表。采用CFA检验因子结构(?2 = 1895.96, df = 394, GFI = 0.86, CFI = 0.97, IFI = 0.97, NFI = 0.97, NNFI = 0.96, SRMR = 0.069, RMSEA = 0.086),并对其效度和信度进行评价。认知情绪量表的七因子模型与原量表相同,认知情绪量表在0.85 ~ 0.88范围内与Cronbach’s alpha具有良好的内部一致性。结果显示,EES得分也与本研究中包含的相关构念的测量呈预期方向相关,从而也支持了该版本量表的外部效度。我们可以得出结论,认知情绪量表是测量学生认知情绪的有效和可靠的工具,因此,研究人员可以使用该工具进行研究。
