Description
The topic of ethnicity is a topic that is often discussed in research, especially psychology research. Considering that Indonesia is a country with many ethnicities, therefore, ethnicity is a very important and relevant topic to be discussed in many studies. In this regard, robust tests measuring ethnicity are needed to collect data and further the data can be validly interpreted. The purpose of this study was to psychometrically evaluate the effects of the method of using two-way items (favorable and unfavorable) on two scales, Ethnic Experience and Ethnic Identity. This evaluation will lead to an evaluation of possible new factors that may arise due to the use of two-way items. The approach used is the Multitrait Multimethod (MTMM), with Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA), to test the four alternative models used. The results of this study indicate that two (CTCM, and CTUM) of the four proposed models have a satisfactory fit. This proves that there is indeed an effect from the method of using two-way items (favorable and unfavorable).
