Description

The purpose of the research reported in this paper was to examine the model fit of an adapted version （English-speaking population to Japanese-speaking population） of the Junior Metacognitive Awareness Inventory （JMAI; Sperling, Howard, Miller, & Murphy, 2002）. The full 18-item version of the instrument was translated and then administered to N=464 high school students. Confirmatory factor analysis（ CFA） was used to test for model fit, and the 18-item model was rejected. Following this modification indexes were used to test a series of changes in the model which arrived at an abbreviated and balanced model of two constructs measured by four items each. This model produced good fit, and is short and convenient to administer. However, the model will require further a priori testing in new samples from the same population in the future. Other implications of the research are discussed in the paper.
