Abstract(s)
Student engagement is a critical component of
e-learning, which became an important focus for most academic institutions during the COVID-19 pandemic. University students’ engagement is measured using various
scales with diferent subscales. This study aimed to evaluate the psychometric properties of the Persian version of
the University Student Engagement Inventory (P-USEI). A
cross-sectional methodology study was conducted among
Iranian university students (n =667) from April to May
2020. After forward–backward translation, the content, and
construct validity, and reliability of the scale were assessed.
The results obtained from the confrmatory factor analysis confrmed that the P-USEI has three factors: cognitive, emotional, and behaviour. The fndings of the study supported
the adequate reliability, factorial, convergent, and discriminant validities of P-USEI in a sample of Iranian students.
The P-USEI dimensions have predictive value for important
academic variables that can be generalized by developing
the research through a psychometric evaluation on student
engagement.
