Abstract

Introduction: Faculty members, being in charge of cultivating students’ life-long learning capabilities, need a valid and reliable tool to assess SELF-DIRECTED LEARNING readiness among them. The aim of this study was to examineassess reliability and construct validity of the Self Directed Learning Readiness SCALE (SDLRS).for pre-internship MEDICAL AND DENTISTRY STUDENTS.Methods: In a cross-sectional psychometric study, 335 pre-internship MEDICAL AND DENTISTRY STUDENTS, studying in Islamic Azad University- Khurasgan and Najaf Abad branches, took the survey in 2008. The subjects completed Fisher’s SELF-DIRECTED LEARNING Readiness SCALE (SDLRS). The SCALE has 40 items in 3 subscales. Data were analyzed through using Spearman Brown correlation coefficient and CONFIRMATORY FACTOR ANALYSIS by LISREL sofware.Results: The resulting SDLRS consisted of 40 items across the following three domains: Self-management, desire to learning, and self-control. The final model in CONFIRMATORY FACTOR ANALYSIS revealed that 39 items indicated a good fit of model. The value of Cronbach’s Alpha showed that all of 3 factors have high internal consistency coefficients.Conclution: This SCALE is a valid and reliable instrument in assessing students’ readiness for self directed learning.
