Measurement and evaluation are critical elements in curriculum programs and
for physical education (PE) teachers. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to
establish the validity and reliability of the Measurement and Evaluation of
Common Competency Perception (MECCP) Scale for in-service PE teachers
(n=878). For construct validity, Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA) and
Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) (n=440) were conducted with two
different samples. According to the EFA results (n=438), the three-factor
MECCP Scale contained 23 items. After CFA (n=440), the three-factor structure
was 23 items using Schumacker and Lomax LISREL analyses. Findings
indicated good fit indices with χ2/sd=4.83, RMSEA=0.09, CFI=0.96, IFI=0.96,
and NFI=0.95. In addition, Cronbach alpha scores were calculated as 0.50-0.77.
In conclusion, the MECCP Scale was found to be valid and reliable for Turkish
in-service PE teachers and is therefore highly recommended to evaluate inservice PE teacher's perceptions of the measurement and evaluation of
common competency and also to establish new experimental designs to
support the development of general efficiency levels of measurement and
evaluation by PE teachers.
