To test the construct validities of the variables in
this study, the total of 72 items were factor-analyzed by
using Principal Component Analysis, using Varimax
rotation. Table 4 showed the summary of factor loadings
for each variable. (Note: Loadings below 0.4 were not
shown in the table.) The eigenvalue and percentage
variances explained of each factor are shown at the
bottom of the table. Items with loadings below 0.4, the
criterion for deleting items, were deleted. After deleting
items with loadings below 0.4, the rest of the items within
each variable were summed to represent that variable.
