Abstract

This study aims to assess the reliability and validity of the Politeness Behavior Scale (PBC) and derive the most suitable model from it. The researcher created the PBC scale. The researchers used a descriptive quantitative data analysis method, the PBC scale adaption process. Students from the three provinces of South Sulawesi, West Sulawesi, and Central Sulawesi who registered during the academic year 2022–2023 made up the population of this study. By calculating the number of samples using the solving formula, the sampling technique in this study was stratified random sampling. One thousand two hundred students make up the research’s sample. The PBC scale used in this study has five (five) indicators: self-regulation of polite behavior, self-efficacy of polite behavior, meeting social expectations, positive reinforcement, and no strings attached. The PBC scale includes 34 statement items. A validity test on the corrected correlation item value and an item reliability test utilizing Cronbach’s and McDonald’s alpha values were both used in the data analysis technique. Additionally, confirmatory component analysis (CFA) and exploratory factor analysis were used to investigate the data (EFA). The findings demonstrated that the PBC Scale adaptation shows the Fit Index with a chi-square value of (711.800/375), RMSEA of (0.053), GFI of (0.990), CFI of (0.987), and GFI of (0.990), (0.985).
