Abstract

The covid 19 pandemic has hurt students' mental health. So, it requires a mental health scale that can quantify the latent variables to measure. This study aims to prove the constructive validity of the modified mental health scale. The scales used were modified from mental Health scales consisting of PHQ-9, GAD-7, and WEMWBS scales. Of the respondents who were willing to fill in this scale were 73 students. Proof of the validity of this scale is carried out by CFA analysis. A single-order CFA analysis was used to prove the construct validity of the variables of anxiety with 6 items, depression with 5 items, and well-being with 7 items. CFA analysis of order two is used to see the relationship of the three latent variables on the CFA of one order. The Fit model criteria for CFA used p-values from Chi-Square>0.05, RMSEA< 0.08. and Factor loading>0.3. The R program with Package Lavaan is used to calculate the CFA analysis. The results of the analysis of anxiety, depression, and well-being scales were obtained values of 0.346, 0.311, and 0.268 respectively. furthermore, the RMSEA was 0.029, 0.048, and 0.063, respectively. Next. The result of CFA order two has a p-value of=0.051 and RMSEA=0.066. The results of this analysis prove that the modified mental health scale has the validity of a fit construct with empirical data from the measurements. Keywords:Anxiety, Depression, well-being, Mental Health, Construct Validity, and CFA.
