الخصائص السيكومترية لمقياس الانفعالات المعرفية لدى ذوي قلق الرياضيات في المرحلة الإعدادية
The study aimed to identify the psychometric properties of the Epistemic Emotions Scale (prepared by Pekrun, Vogl, Muis and Sinatra (2016), translated by Radwa Hassan Hafez, 2023) among pupils with mathematics anxiety at the preparatory stage. The study sample was (258) male and female students, with an average age of (12.93), and a standard deviation of (0.62). This study relied on a descriptive approach. The study used the following tools: the mathematics anxiety scale, and the epistemic emotions scale (prepared by Pekrun, Vogl, Muis and Sinatra (2016), translated by Radwa Hassan Hafez, 2023). The results of the study resulted in: verifying the psychometric properties of the scale, as it became clear that high validity values were made using confirmatory factor analysis and internal consistency coefficients, while the reliability coefficient using the Cronbach’s alpha and split-half methods indicated high values, and all previous procedures indicate that the scale has a high degree of reliability. Psychometric properties (validity, reliability, internal consistency), and thus its ability to measure indicators of The results of the current study resulted in: verifying the psychometric properties of the scale, as it became clear that high validity values were made using confirmatory factor analysis and internal consistency coefficients, while the reliability coefficient using the Cronbach’s alpha and split-half methods indicated high values, and all previous procedures indicate that the scale has a high degree of reliability.
