Abstract

The purpose of this study is to obtain an appropriate instrument that can measure student self-regulated learning in a statistics course. The first step of instrument design is to form items that related to self-regulated learning strategy from some previous research. The second step is to check the validity of instrument design to the expert-judgment. The third step is to try out the instrument design to get an instrument that has validity and reliability criteria. After all steps, the instrument can be used to measure the scale of student self-regulated learning in statistics course for the research subject. Those data were processed and analyzed using exploratory factor analysis to reduce the number of items and to form some factors which consist of some of the highly correlated items among them. These factors can be used to measure the influence of student self-regulated learning in statistics course on other variables that are suspected to be related to the variable of self-regulated learning in a statistics course.
