摘要：The academic self-esteem is one of the key factors for better
academic achievement. However, there is a scarcity of available measures for
assessing students’ academic self-esteem. The present study was undertaken to
assess psychometric properties of the Academic Self-Esteem Scale (ASES) for
use in Bangladesh context. The ASES was translated into Bangla following the
guidelines of International Test Commission and the translated version was
administered on a sample of 221 students who were selected from different
universities via convenience sampling technique. Results explored that all
items except one item of the ASES had sufficient item-total correlations. Exploratory
factor analysis revealed only one component that met the criteria for
inclusion as a factor. This scale has good internal consistency reliabilities, testretest
reliability, composite reliability, average variance extracted (AVE),
standard error of measurement, and predictive validity. Differential item functioning
test results suggested absence of item response bias between high and
low achiever groups. This scale would be helpful to researchers, teachers,
guardians, and students to assess their academic self-esteem.
