Cognitive flexibility is an important psychological capacity that enables individuals to adjust their thoughts and responses to changing situations. However, an efficient and psychometrically adequate short-form measure is needed for research in the Indonesian context. This study aimed to examine the construct validity and internal consistency of the Indonesian version of the Short-Form Cognitive Flexibility Inventory (CFI-SF). Data were collected through an online survey from 160 Indonesian adults aged 18–40 years recruited using purposive sampling. The CFI-SF consists of 10 items representing two dimensions, Alternative and Control, rated on a five-point Likert scale. Construct validity was examined using Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA), while internal consistency was assessed using Cronbach’s alpha. The results showed that all 10 items had significant standardized factor loadings ranging from 0.589 to 0.917 (p < .001). The two-factor model demonstrated acceptable overall fit based on CFI = 0.933, TLI = 0.911, and SRMR = 0.0562, although RMSEA = 0.0858 indicated a marginal fit. The scale showed acceptable internal consistency, with a Cronbach’s alpha of 0.727. These findings provide initial evidence supporting the construct validity and reliability of the Indonesian CFI-SF for research involving Indonesian adults.
