Development of Bosai Literacy Scale using Construct Validation Paradigm

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to attempt to develop a measurement scale based on the theoretical model of bosai literacy. When the model is repeatedly disproved and the most robust model is accepted as a theory, the scale will be used as a standardized measurement scale. As a first step toward this goal, this study attempts to develop a scale to measure bosai literacy in a way that follows the construct validation paradigm. In order to examine the results internally, a field survey was conducted in Tajiri-cho, Osaka Prefecture. As a result, we succeeded in developing a scale with reliability that can withstand continuous use.
