The study aimed to verify the psychometric properties of the questionnaire of students' perceptions about electronic assessment. The descriptive research methodology was used. The study sample consisted of (402) students from Sultan Qaboos University. The face validity of the questionnaire's items (13 items) was established. The results of the exploratory factor analysis showed that the items of the questionnaire loaded on one factor only (eigenvalue = 7.54) explaining (58.01%) of the total variance of the items. The internal consistency of the items was also validated through statistically significant correlation coefficients between item score and total score ranging between (0.55 – 0.83). Results of the confirmatory factor analysis showed the stability of the underlying structure of the Questionnaire of Students' Perceptions about Electronic Assessment, which indicates that the questionnaire has an acceptable level of construct validity. The Cronbach alpha coefficient was (0.93) while the stability coefficient was (0.94), which confirms that the questionnaire’s scores have acceptable levels of reliability. In light of the indications of validity and reliability, it can be concluded that the questionnaire has good psychometric properties that make it a reliable tool that can be used to identify students' opinions about the electronic assessment process in the curricula.
