CONFIRMATORY FACTOR ANALYSIS OF THE ACTIVE CITIZENSHIP CHARACTERISTICS FOR STUDENTS OF THE TEACHING PROFESSION RAJAMANGALA UNIVERSITY OF TECHNOLOGY

Abstract

This research article of this research is to analyze the components to confirm active citizenship characteristics of teaching students. Rajamangala University of Technology Population and sample/important data providers in the research include: Teaching professional students Bachelor of Industrial Education Program (4-year program) under Rajamangala University of Technology Academic year 2022, number of 323 people.The tools used in the research include: Questionnaire. Statistical It is characterized by a 5-level estimation scale. data were used to analyze the data using the confirmatory factor analysis method. The research results found that the model is consistent with empirical data. The component confirms active citizenship characteristics of teaching students. Rajamangala University of Technology consists of 4 components as follows: 1) Component 1: Responsibility Chi-square statistic value (𝜒²) = 1.376, p value = 0.502, relative chi-square statistic value (𝜒²/df) = .688, CFI = 1.000, GFI = 0.998, AGFI = 0.989, RMSEA = 0.000 2 ) Component 2 Participation Chi-square statistic value (𝜒²) = 22.376, p value = 0.064, relative chi-square statistic value (𝜒²/df) = 2.797, CFI = .987, GFI = 0.979, AGFI = 0.944, RMSEA = 0.75 3 ) Component 3: Volunteer spirit, chi-square statistic (𝜒²) = 9.755, p value = 0.82, relative chi-square statistic (𝜒²/df) = 1.951, CFI = .995, GFI = 0.988, AGFI = 0.964, RMSEA = 0.054 and 4) Component 4 brings change. Chi-square statistic value (𝜒²) = 150.993, p value = 0.053, relative chi-square statistic value (𝜒²/df) = 2.904, CFI = .968, GFI = 0.931, AGFI = 0.896, RMSEA = 0.077 The results of this research can lead to the determination of sub-indicator behaviors that can be measured operationally through practice using a learning management model. To strengthen teaching students' citizenship characteristics.
