This study aims to develop and validate the Organizational Health Behavior Index (OHBI), a quantitative instrument for measuring organizational health at Universitas Pancasila. The instrument was designed around eight theoretical factors (32 Likert-scale items): Awareness, Relations, Appreciation, Internal Communication, Engagement, Emplo-yee Characteristics, Employee Voice, and Organizational Culture. The instrument was tested through content validity (CVR/CVI), exploratory factor analysis (EFA), Cronbach's Alpha reliability, and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) on staged samples (minimum realized N of 6 experts, 100, and 150 respondents). Results show an empirical reduction to five final factors comprising 24 items—Awareness, Relations, Appreciation, Engagement, and Internal Communication & Employee Voice—with an excellent model fit (CFI = 0.996; RMSEA = 0.014) and high reliability (α = 0.832–0.864), while Employee Characteristics and Organizational Culture failed to demonstrate consistent psychometric behavior and were excluded from the quantitative model. A mean-difference test of total OHBI scores across gender, sector, tenure, and managerial level showed no statistically significant differences, indicating an inclusive instrument. These findings support OHBI as a psychometrically sound quantitative instrument for measuring organizational health in a higher-education context.
