摘要:This study examined the validity and reliability of achievement goal instruments to
determine the nature of achievement goals for Indonesian students in mathematics
education programmes. A total of 538 students participated, selected by using cluster
random sampling. A survey design was employed to investigate the factor structure of
the achievement goals. Quantitative data were analysed using exploratory factor
analysis (EFA) and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) using SPSS 23 and AMOS 18. EFA
revealed similar structures from prior research and the present study. The CFA
approach verified the questionnaire of achievement goal was satisfactory for
Indonesian students’ context. It also confirmed Indonesian students in mathematics
education programmes adopt other-avoidance and self-approach goals. This work
concludes the achievement goals of Indonesian university students have a six-factor
structure. These findings imply the greater importance of validating and confirming the
structure of pupils’ achievement goals relative to translating a construct into a different
language.
