Abstract

Background: Outcome expectations refer to an important point according to which behavior is a result of people’s expectations about achieving a specific outcome and the value they attach to that outcome. Therefore, it is an important factor in education. Introducing appropriate tools to assess these variables and to demonstrate their critical role in the field of education is essential.Objectives: The purpose of the present study was to examine the factor structure, RELIABILITY, and validity of students’ OUTCOME EXPECTANCY scale.Methods: To achieve this end, 414 undergraduate students (248 girls and 166 boys) of State, Azad, and Payame Noor Universities of Yazd were selected by multistage cluster sampling and measured by the OUTCOME EXPECTANCY Scale.Findings: The results of exploratory factor analysis and principal component analysis confirmed four factors (future orientation, job satisfaction, personal expectations, and self-confidence) in addition to the general factor of students’ outcome expectations. Cronbach's alpha coefficient was used to assess the RELIABILITY and confirmatory factor analysis was used to assess the FACTORIAL VALIDITY of the scale. The results showed that the scale had an acceptable internal consistency. Cronbach's alpha coefficients for its subscale ranged from 0.65 to 0.79. Moreover, the results of the confirmatory factor analysis revealed that the structure of the scale had an acceptable fit to the data and all the goodness-of-fit indices confirmed the model.Discussion and Conclusion: The results of the factor analysis and the RELIABILITY and validity coefficients were almost similar to the previous researches conducted in the main culture. Considering its good psychometric properties, the scale is a useful tool for determining student' s OUTCOME EXPECTANCY.
