Abstract

Independent Learning–Independent Campus (Merdeka Belajar–Kampus Merdeka; MBKM) promotes off-campus experiential learning, yet the psychological conditions shaping participation and the equity implications of access remain underexamined. This multisite cross-sectional study tested the association between holistic personality and decision-making among 260 undergraduate MBKM participants at a State Islamic University and a Muhammadiyah university in Indonesia. Proportional random sampling was applied within the available participant frame. A structured questionnaire assessed holistic personality (experiential, attitudinal, and creative values) and MBKM decision-making (self-control, external control, and absence of control). Descriptive statistics, Cronbach’s alpha, and Pearson correlation were used. Most respondents reported moderate decision-making (80.8%; M = 30.50, SD = 6.21) and moderate holistic personality (65.4%; M = 138.54, SD = 14.88). Reliability was acceptable for decision-making (α = .67) and good for holistic personality (α = .81). Holistic personality correlated positively and moderately with MBKM decision-making (r = .477, p < .001). Self-control and experiential value were the dominant dimensions. The study contributes a psychological-equity account of MBKM: students’ capacity to regulate goals and derive meaning from experience is associated with more deliberate participation, but equitable participation requires information, financial, mobility, safety, and mentoring support. Universities should embed gender-responsive and welfare-sensitive safeguards in MBKM governance.

Abstract

Exploring the Validity of a Creative Personality Scale in University Settings: A Confirmatory Factor Analysis Approach. Objective: This study aims to validate a revised 24-item Creative Personality Scale explicitly tailored for university students using Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA). The scale addresses gaps in existing tools initially designed for high school students and offers a more accurate fit for higher education contexts. Methods: A sample of 804 students from various faculties was selected through stratified random sampling to ensure diverse representation. The scale was revised after the initial analysis revealed inconsistencies in certain items within the university context. CFA was then employed to assess the revised scale's construct validity and reliability. Findings: The revised scale demonstrated significant improvements in internal consistency, with Cronbach's Alpha increasing from 0.823 to 0.858. Additionally, model fit indices were favourable, with a Comparative Fit Index (CFI) of 0.92 and a Root Mean Square Error of Approximation (RMSEA) of 0.04, indicating strong model validity. Conclusion: This validated scale provides a reliable and accurate tool for assessing creativity in university students. It enables educational institutions to support better creativity development, which is increasingly essential for academic and professional success. The findings significantly contribute to educational psychology by providing a context-sensitive instrument for higher education. Keywords: confirmatory factor analysis, creative personality scale, internal consistency, validity, and reliability.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.23960/jpp.v14.i2.202494
