Abstract
This research aimed to 1) examine the goodness-of-fit of the respectful mind factor model among university students, and 2) conduct a second-order confirmatory factor analysis of the respectful mind factor model. The sample consisted of 321 students from Phranakhon Rajabhat University, selected through stratified random sampling. The research instrument was a five-point Likert scale questionnaire designed to measure the respectful mind. The instrument demonstrated content validity indices ranging from 0.80 to 1.00 and a reliability coefficient of 0.906. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and second-order confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) within a structural equation modeling framework, employing JAMOVI version 2.6.17.
The results indicated that the respectful mind factor model of university students comprised three components. The second-order confirmatory factor analysis revealed that the developed model demonstrated a good fit with the empirical data. This was supported by the goodness-of-fit indices, which met the acceptable criteria (χ2 /df = 1.94, CFI = 0.964, GFI = 0.995, AGFI = 0.992, RMSEA = 0.054, and SRMR = 0.040). These findings confirm that the proposed respectful mind construct is consistent with the empirical data.
