The language and content validity, explanatory factor analysis (EFA) and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) were used to assess the validity of the scale. The scale’s reliability was obtained using Cronbach’s alpha coefficient, item-total correlations, and test-retest reliability. Content validity index of WEPS-T was excellent (CVI was 1.00). All the factor loadings were found to be > .30 in factors analysis. In CFA, it was inferred that the model had a good fit (×2/df = 5.344; GFI = .864; CFI = .868; RMSEA = .079; RMR |
