“…However, according to the literature, the student form of the AIR-Scale had previously been adapted to Turkish and the sub-dimensions had yielded results that were consistent with the original form (Arslan & Özmete, 2015). Similarly, it was found that the Spanish (Mumbardó, Guàrdia Olmos, & Giné, 2018), Norwegian (Garrels, & Granlund, 2018), and Chinese (Wong, et al, 2017) versions of the scale had also yielded results that were consistent with the original scale.…”

“…Although various measurement tools have been developed to measure self-determination skills in the field of intellectual disabilities, only the Arc's Self-Determination Scale, developed by Wehmeyer & Kelchner (1995), and the AIR, (Wolman et al, 1994), which is the measurement tool of American Research Institute, were designed to measure self-determination globally. The AIR Self-Determination Scale had previously been translated into Spanish (Mumbardó, Guàrdia Olmos, & Giné, 2018), Norwegian (Garrels, & Granlund, 2018), and Chinese (Wong, et al, 2017). However, there is not enough research on the appropriateness and application of self-determination skills to students with different linguistic and cultural backgrounds.…”

The purpose of this study is to adapt Adaptation of AIR Self-Determination-Educator Version The confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) of the scale, which was translated into Turkish and studied in terms of language validity, was carried out on 220 (46.8% female, 53.2% male) special education teachers. Teachers answer the items in the scale by thinking about their students. The age range of the participants in the study was between 25 and 59, and the mean age was 36.12 (sd ± 7.03). Sixty-four percent of the students reflected by the data in the study were female and thirty-six percent were male. According to the distribution of the disability groups, 24% of the students had autism and 76% had an intellectual disability. After establishing language, the validity and reliability of the scale of analysis was examined. Item-factor structure has been tested for compliance with a model by confirmatory factor analysis (CFA). Based on this, five-factor structure of Adaptation of AIR Self-Determination Scale -Educator Version has been validated. As a result of the analysis for adaptation of Adaptation of AIR Self-Determination Scale -Educator Version to Turkish, it can be said that the scale is a reliable and valid measurement tool. As a result of the measurement model, the t values of the indicators in the measurement model were between 10. 02 and 16.36 and R2 values varied between .39 and .78. Cronbach's Alpha (α) internal consistency coefficient of the scale ranged between .86 and .94. The CR values of the subdimensions of the scale vary between .86 and .93, and the AVE values between .51 and .70.

“…Results of the CFA suggested a relatively good fit of the data to the model (χ 2 (df = 246, n = 356) = 391.64, χ 2 /df = 1.59, RMSEA = 0.041 90% CI [0.033-0.048], CFI = 0.933, TLI = 0.925, SRMR = 0.05). The AIR SDS-C also showed good levels of internal reliability (α = 0.88) [35].…”

“…The first section was an open-ended item that collected the participants' personal goals. The second section measured the participants' self-determination competencies (the independent variable) by using the first section of the AIR Self-Determination Scale-Chinese Version (AIR SDS-C) [35]. The third section measured personal well-being (the dependent variable) by using the Personal Well-Being-Intellectual Disability (Cantonese) 3rd Edition (PWI-C) [36].…”

Background: The self-determination of people with an intellectual disability (ID) in the contexts of adulthood and Chinese culture is under-examined in the field of ID, even though the concept of self-determination has vigorously developed in recent decades. This study examined the relationship between self-determination competencies and the personal well-being of adults with mild ID in Hong Kong, as well as their personal goals and decision-making (dis)agreements with their significant others. Methods: We interviewed 170 participants using the AIR Self-Determination Scale—Chinese Version (AIR SDS-C) and the Personal Well-Being—Intellectual Disability (Cantonese) (PWI-C), along with a self-constructed questionnaire. Results: When the demographic characteristics were controlled, self-determination competencies correlated positively with personal well-being (r = 0.313, p < 0.001), diverse personal goals were identified, and agreement with significant others was dominant in both daily and major decision-making. Conclusions: A positive correlation between self-determination and personal well-being was confirmed in a Chinese population with mild ID. These findings expand the understanding of the types of personal goals and agreement patterns of people with mild ID and yield implications for further research and practices.

“…CFA can support further evidence regarding the fitness of the proposed model with regard to the structure of the factors identified via EFA. The CFA is presented in route diagrams where the circles represent latent variables and the squares represent observed variables (Wong, Wong and Zhuang & Liu, 2017). The single-headed arrows are used to imply an assumed direction of influence, and the twoheaded arrows represent the covariance between the six latent variables (Figure 1).…”

The purpose of this study is to examine the validity and reliability of perceived self-efficacies questionnaire (PSE) which is designed for university students at faculty of education. A total of 472 students participated, selected by using cluster random sampling. In order to examine the construct validity of the PSE, Quantitative data were analysed using exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) using SPSS 23 and AMOS 23. EFA revealed similar structures from prior research and the present study. The CFA approach verified the questionnaire of perceived self-efficacies was satisfactory for university students’ context. This work concludes the perceived self-efficacies of university students have a nine-factor structure: Planning perceived self-efficacy, Moral and emotional perceived self-efficacy, Social leadership perceived self-efficacy, Academic perceived self-efficacy, Reading perceived self-efficacy, Technology perceived self-efficacy, Research perceived self-efficacy, Motivated perceived self-efficacy and Creative perceived self-efficacy. The goodness of fit indices values shows good fit for self-efficacies with nine factors. According to these findings, the PSE is appropriate for researchers or teaching staff whose aim is to measure his/her students perceived self-efficacies beliefs.

Psychometric properties of the AIR Self‐Determination Scale: the Chinese version (AIR SDS‐C) for Chinese people with intellectual disabilities

Abstract: The AIR SDS-C appears to be a valid and reliable scale. This study examined adult groups as well as student groups. The application of the scale can thus be extended to a wider population. The implications for theory building and practice are discussed.
