This study aimed at preparing a Polish self-report version of the Comprehensive Executive Function Inventory (CEFI), verifying its psychometric properties, and shortening it. The sample included 1109 adolescents aged 12 to 19 attending schools located in a city in eastern Poland. Drawing upon the theoretical background of the CEFI and results presented in its manual, we tested three competing factor structures: a unidimensional, nine-factor, and a bifactor structure to verify the inventory’s construct validity. These analyses did not fully confirm any of the hypothesized models. Moreover, the results did not support the analysis of subscale scores. A shortened nine-item version had satisfactory reliability (⍺ = .778; ω = .779), was unidimensional, and scalarly invariant across gender and age.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
