Early childhood education in Raudhatul Athfal (RA) demands optimal teacher psychological readiness to manage complex classroom interactions. However, psychometrically sound instruments specifically tailored for RA teachers in Indonesia remain scarce. This study aimed to adapt and examine preliminary psychometric evidence of the self-efficacy, resilience, and work engagement scales among RA teachers. The study involved 139 RA teachers in Bandung Regency recruited through purposive sampling. Content relevance was evaluated by four experts; 37 items received quantitative ratings, and one additional self-efficacy item was formulated based on qualitative expert recommendations. The 38-item dataset was analyzed in jamovi using exploratory factor analysis (EFA), confirmatory factor analysis (CFA), and reliability estimation via Cronbach’s alpha and McDonald’s omega. The findings revealed that all scales demonstrated high internal consistency across total and dimensional scores. However, CFA yielded mixed goodness-of-fit results; while CFI, TLI, and SRMR indicated acceptable fit, RMSEA values reflected substantial approximation errors. The combined 38-item model also failed to achieve adequate fit due to high empirical overlap across dimensions in discriminant validity testing. Although a 23-item post hoc model exhibited improved fit indices, it cannot be considered definitive. These preliminary findings highlight the necessity of further scale refinement and independent sample replication prior to wide educational application.
ABSTRAK
Pendidikan anak usia dini di jenjang Raudhatul Athfal (RA) menuntut kesiapan psikologis guru yang optimal dalam mengelola interaksi kelas serta membina karakter anak secara berkelanjutan. Namun, ketersediaan instrumen pengukuran psikologis yang valid dan andal pada konteks spesifik guru RA di Indonesia masih sangat terbatas. Penelitian ini bertujuan mengadaptasi dan mengevaluasi bukti psikometrik awal skala self-efficacy, resiliensi, dan work engagement pada guru RA. Penelitian ini melibatkan 139 guru RA di Kabupaten Bandung yang dipilih menggunakan teknik purposive sampling. Relevansi isi butir dinilai oleh empat ahli materi dan bahasa; sebanyak 37 butir dinilai secara kuantitatif, sedangkan satu butir tambahan self-efficacy dirumuskan berdasarkan saran kualitatif ahli. Analisis data terhadap 38 butir dilakukan dengan perangkat lunak jamovi melalui exploratory factor analysis (EFA) pendukung, confirmatory factor analysis (CFA), serta estimasi reliabilitas Cronbach’s alpha dan McDonald’s omega. Hasil analisis menunjukkan bahwa seluruh skala memiliki konsistensi internal yang tinggi, baik pada skor total maupun tiap dimensi. Akan tetapi, hasil CFA menghasilkan kesesuaian model yang beragam; indeks CFI, TLI, dan SRMR tergolong baik, sedangkan indeks RMSEA masih menunjukkan galat aproksimasi yang relatif tinggi. Model gabungan 38 butir juga belum mencapai kecocokan yang memuaskan akibat tingginya tumpang tindih antardimensi pada pengujian validitas diskriminan. Model post hoc 23 butir memperlihatkan kecocokan yang lebih baik, namun belum dapat ditetapkan sebagai model akhir. Temuan ini menegaskan bahwa instrumen adaptasi ini memerlukan pengujian lanjutan pada sampel independen sebelum diterapkan secara luas.
