The ALCS discriminated between students with high grade point average from those with low grade point average. Investigating of construct Validity of ALCS showed one factor structure of the scale was confirmed. Test-retest Reliability after a two week interval and Kuder-Richardson alpha coefficient of the ALCS were. 83 (p<. 01) and. 71 respectively.
