The feasibility of the translated instrument was tested through psychometric features such as construct validity (exploratory and factor analyses) and internal consistency (Cronbach’s alpha). Initially, the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test was used to test the normality of the distribution of the data. EFA was carried out to examine the factor structure of the instrument. Before EFA could be carried out, KMO and BTS were implemented to determine the suitability of the data for factor analysis. EFA was conducted through Principal Components Analysis as the extraction method and Varimax with Kaiser Normalization as the rotation method. CFA was deployed for the confirmation of the factor structure of the translated instrument. SPSS 23.0 and AMOS 23.0 were used in the analyses of the data.
