Job Satisfaction and Organizational Behavior Employee Performance and Management Psychometric Methodologies and Testing

Abstract

Numerous overlapping and inconsistent views of academicians and practitioners on construct of employee engagement have led to the development of various measurement instruments that differ in terms of the variables. The article attempts to develop an assessment instrument and to assess content validity of the proposed variables/dimensions. The construct is generated through grounded theory method, conducting structured interviews of human resource heads (15 best firms). The assessment of content validity is done through six domain experts. Content validity index, Kappa statistic, and content validity ratio (Lawshe test) were implemented for content validity. Three dimensions (alignment, affective, and action-oriented) having 10 items each were identified. The item content validity index (I-CVI) ranged from 0.66 to 1 and scale content validity index (S-CVI/Ave) ranged from 0.848 to 0.932. The instrument is assessed with high content validity. It bridges the research gap of incongruity among academic and industry. The next step of research will involve testing of this instrument for psychometric properties and testing its comprehensiveness for respondents.
