This study examined the psychometric properties of the Arabic version of Abbott's Creative Self-Efficacy inventory. Saudi honors students (157 men vs. 163 women) participated. These students are undergraduates (M age = 19.5 year, SD = 1.9) who complete 30 credit hours with a grade point average of no less than 4.5 out of 5. The results showed that the internal consistency (α = .87) and the test-retest reliabilities (r = .73) were satisfactory. The study sample was separated into two subsamples. The data from the first subsample (n = 60) were used to conduct an exploratory factor analysis, whereas the data from the second subsample (n = 260) were used to perform a confirmatory factor analysis. The results of exploratory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis indicated that creative self-efficacy was not a unidimensional construct but consisted of two factors labeled "creative thinking self-efficacy" and "creative performance self-efficacy." As expected, this two-factor model fit the data adequately, supporting prior research that treated creative self-efficacy as multidimensional construct.
本研究考察了雅培创造性自我效能感量表阿拉伯语版本的心理测量特性。沙特的优秀学生（157名男性和163名女性）参与了研究。这些学生均为本科生（平均年龄 = 19.5岁，标准差 = 1.9），他们修满30个学分，平均绩点不低于4.5（满分5分）。结果显示，内部一致性（α = 0.87）和重测信度（r = 0.73）令人满意。研究样本被分为两个子样本。第一个子样本（n = 60）的数据用于进行探索性因素分析，而第二个子样本（n = 260）的数据用于进行验证性因素分析。探索性因素分析和验证性因素分析的结果表明，创造性自我效能感并非单维结构，而是由两个因素组成，分别为“创造性思维自我效能感”和“创造性表现自我效能感”。正如预期的那样，这个双因素模型与数据拟合良好，支持了之前将创造性自我效能感视为多维结构的研究。
