Also, construct validity is established through the item-test correlation, obtaining values ranging from .32 to .72, consolidating the validity of the scale. Reliability was determined through the internal consistency of the omega coefficient, providing values ranging from .67 to .88, therefore it is concluded that the scale is reliable and valid.
