Lifelong Learning Motivation Scale (LLMS):Validity and Reliability Study

Abstract

The aim of this study is to develop a scale for measuring lifelong learning skills in both young and adult individuals. A total of 275 participants, ranging in age from 14 to 55, took part in the study. The first step in creating the scale item pool involved conducting a thorough literature review. Existing scales related to the subject were examined, and based on these findings, an initial 18-item form was developed. The scale item pool was then presented to two experts who are academicians in the field of lifelong learning, as well as a scale development expert. Their input was taken into account, resulting in corrections and refinements to the scale trial form. Following this, the revised scale trial form was administered to the participants. To assess the construct validity of the scale, an exploratory factor analysis was conducted. This analysis revealed that 7 items needed to be removed from the scale. Ultimately, the scale was found to consist of five factors. The first factor included 5 items, while the remaining factors consisted of 3 items each. Next, a confirmatory factor analysis was performed to determine the relationships between the factors, the relationships between the variables and the factors, the relationships between the factors themselves, and the degree to which the factors explained the model. The Cronbach's alpha reliability coefficient for the scale was found to be .646. Based on these results, the Lifelong Learning Motivation Scale (LLMSS) was developed to address the existing gap in the literature and provide a useful tool for future research and applications related to lifelong learning.
