Homework Goal Orientation Scale: Measurement invariance and latent mean differences across gender and grade level

Abstract: The current study validated the Homework Goal Orientation Scale (HGOS) for secondary school students. Results revealed that HGOS consisted of two distinct but related subscales: mastery-approach and performance-approach. Given satisfactory measurement invariance, the latent mean differences were then examined across gender (males vs. females) and grade level (7th vs. 9th). Findings showed no statistically significant mean differences across gender and grade level.Finally, consistent with theoretical expectatio… Show more

“…With respect to homework policy in these schools, similar to many schools in China (Sun et al, 2019), students are expected to have a regular place and time to do homework and to submit homework assignments on time; parents are expected to assist children to arrange a quiet work environment and to provide related supplies and resources as needed. Regarding math homework practices, almost all participants (97%) were given math homework five days or more a week.…”

“…Homework Goal Orientation This scale consisted of mastery-and performance-approaches, based on the Homework Goal Orientation Scale (HGOS; Sun et al, 2019). Sun et al (2019), in their validation study involving secondary students, reported that mastery-and performance-approaches were empirically distinguishable (RMSEA = .012; SRMR = .020; CFI = .999). For our current investigation, the same four items assessed students' adoption of masteryapproach relating to math assignments.…”
