“…DREEM was considered a suitable instrument for measuring the perception of educational environment in undergraduate medical students (Soemantri, Herrera, & Riquelme, 2010 ). The Cronbach’s alpha of the DREEM scale in studies carried out with medical students in Brazil ranged from 0.76 to 0.94 (Costa, Costa, & Pereira, 2021 ; Miguel, Tempski, Kobayasi, Mayer, & Martins, 2021 ).…”

Objective To examine the relationships between sociodemographic characteristics, student academic information, social support, sense of coherence, anxiety, lifestyle, and quality of life among dental students. Methods: A cross-sectional study among 233 dental students in Brazil. We captured data on sociodemographic and socioeconomic characteristics, social support through Social Support Appraisal, psychosocial factors (sense of coherence and anxiety based on SOC-13 and Depression, Anxiety and Stress Scale-21 – anxiety subscale, respectively), lifestyle as per individual Lifestyle Profile and quality of life based on VERAS-Q. Data was analysed through Structural Equation Modelling. Results: Greater social support, higher sense of coherence, lower anxiety, better lifestyle directly predicted better quality of life. Male gender, city of origin did not differ from the city of the campus, higher social support and greater sense of coherence were indirectly linked with better quality of life via better lifestyle. Lower academic semester and higher social support indirectly predicted better quality of life via lower anxiety. Conclusion: Social support, sense of coherence, anxiety, and lifestyle were relevant factors directly associated with dental student’s quality of life. Indirect pathways were observed between gender, moved home to attend dental course, academic semester, social support, sense of coherence, and quality of life.

“…This was our first realization of the students’ lack of understanding and lack of feedback. There were discrepancies in perception among students studying different professional health courses in Brazil in another reported example by Costa and his coworkers ( 2021 ), which led in more negative consequences and problems in the educational environment. As a result of the DREEM research, we find that a diagnostic reform can be implemented to correct the current situation.…”

Cross-sectional research was designed using the Dundee Ready Education Environment Measure (DREEM) to examine the impact of the educational environment on students’ perceptions of learning and teaching in a university offering higher education. Using a Likert scale, 300 participants from various streams were assessed. There were no disparities in the students’ judgments in the five DREEM categories of discipline, accommodation, gender, level of study, and disciplines. In general, students judged that the student–teaching environment was satisfactory. To investigate the validity of the DREEM, we conducted Cronbach alpha analysis and exploratory factor analysis (EFA) employing principal component analysis with varimax rotation. Only 44 of the 50 factors were deemed to be significant, with a cumulative explained variance of 46.539%. The total construct dependability of the EFA nine-factor solutions was 0.954. Finally, only five acceptable factors explained 46.539% variance using the criteria of eigenvalue > 1 and Cronbach’s alpha > 0.6. Factor analysis was appropriate as evidenced by the Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin Measure of Sampling Adequacy of 0.942. With a Cronbach alpha of 0.955, the revised first domain of “student perception of learning” was the most trustworthy DREEM item, accounting for 20.19% of the variance. The highest factor loading was for the item “Teaching helps me become a more active learner”. A redesigned DREEM might be valuable for assessing the educational environment at institutions providing higher education.

“…Lingkungan pembelajaran dapat memengaruhi seberapa banyak pengetahuan yang akan diperoleh mahasiswa dan secara tidak langsung juga akan memengaruhi motivasi belajar dan kesejahteraan (well being) mereka (Jeyashree et al, 2018). Dalam beberapa penelitian, lingkungan pembelajaran memiliki hubungan yang kuat dengan performa mahasiswa, kepuasannya, dan keberhasilannya (Costa et al, 2021). Mahasiswa yang menilai lingkungan pembelajarannya sebagai hal yang ia sukai akan mencapai keberhasilan akademik yang lebih tinggi dibandingkan dengan mahasiswa yang menilai lingkungan pembelajarannya dengan negatif (Costa et al, 2021).…”

English: The learning environment is very important to support student achievement. During the COVID-19 pandemic until the new normal transition, students are faced with a changing learning environment, starting from online, hybrid, to full offline. Dundee Ready Education Environment Measure (DREEM) is an instrument that measures students' perceptions of their learning environment in medical institutions developed by Roff, et.al. (1997). DREEM initially consist of 50-item to measure five domains, it was later developed into a 12-item short version by Jeyashree, Shewade, and Kathrivel (2018). There is no adapted version of DREEM short-form for non-medical institutions in Indonesia. Therefore, this study aims to adapt and validate the DREEM short-form measurement tool for a wider range of institutions. The population of this instrument testing are students in Indonesia with a sample of 160 people. The results show that the instrument has good internal consistency (α= 0.896), able to distinguish individuals in groups based on discrimination items, and valid in measuring constructs (Model Fit CFI = 0.922; GFI = 0.901; SRMR = 0.055, and have a good factor loading). Thus, Indonesian version of DREEM short-form is a valid and reliable tool for use in research in the field of education in a wider range of institutions.Indonesian: Lingkungan pembelajaran sangatlah penting untuk mendukung prestasi mahasiswa. Pada masa pandemi COVID-19 hingga transisi new normal, mahasiswa dihadapkan dengan lingkungan pembelajaran yang berubah-ubah, dimulai dari daring, hybrid, hingga full luring. Dundee Ready Education Environment Measure (DREEM) merupakan instrumen yang mengukur persepsi mahasiswa terhadap lingkungan pembelajarannya dalam institusi medis yang dikembangkan oleh Roff, et.al. (1997). Awalnya DREEM berjumlah 50-item untuk mengukur lima domain, kemudian dikembangkan dalam versi singkat (short-form) 12-item oleh Jeyashree, Shewade, dan Kathrivel (2018). Selama ini belum ada alat ukur dalam Bahasa Indonesia untuk DREEM short version 12-item untuk institusi di luar medis. Maka penelitian ini bertujuan untuk membuat adaptasi dan validasi alat ukur DREEM Short-Form 12-item untuk institusi yang lebih luas. Populasi dari pengujian alat ukur ini adalah mahasiswa di Indonesia dengan sampel sebanyak 160 orang. Hasilnya menunjukkan bahwa alat ukur yang telah diadaptasi memiliki konsistensi internal yang baik (reliabilitas α= 0.896), mampu membedakan individu dalam kelompok berdasarkan item discrimination, dan valid dalam mengukur konstruk (Model Fit CFI = 0,922; GFI = 0,901; SRMR = 0,055, dan memiliki muatan faktor yang baik). Dengan begitu, DREEM-12 Bahasa Indonesia merupakan alat ukur yang valid dan reliabel untuk digunakan dalam penelitian di bidang pendidikan pada setting yang lebih luas.
