Flourishing in Studies Scale (FSS): Psychometric properties

This study aimed to investigate the psychometric properties of the Flourishing in Studies Scale (FSS) in the university context. Two hundred and eleven university students were administered the FSS, together with the Study Satisfaction Scale (SSS) and the Satisfaction with Life Scale (SWLS). Confirmatory factor analysis supported a unidimensional structure of the FSS, with adequate fit indices (CFI = .965, TLI = .951, RMSEA = .073). Internal consistency (Cronbach’s α = .87) was satisfactory, while Pearson’s correlations confirmed con- current validity with both study satisfaction (r = .39, p < .01) and life satisfaction (r = .37, p < .01). These findings highlight the good psychometric properties of the scale, identifying it as a valuable tool for researchers and practitioners to measure flourishing in the academic setting.

Abstract

This study aimed to investigate the psychometric properties of the Flourishing in Studies Scale (FSS) in the university context. Two hundred and eleven university students were administered the FSS, together with the Study Satisfaction Scale (SSS) and the Satisfaction with Life Scale (SWLS). Confirmatory factor analysis supported a unidimensional structure of the FSS, with adequate fit indices (CFI = .965, TLI = .951, RMSEA = .073). Internal consistency (Cronbach’s α = .87) was satisfactory, while Pearson’s correlations confirmed con- current validity with both study satisfaction (r = .39, p < .01) and life satisfaction (r = .37, p < .01). These findings highlight the good psychometric properties of the scale, identifying it as a valuable tool for researchers and practitioners to measure flourishing in the academic setting.
