The purpose of this study is to test the validity and reliability of the loneliness as a variable and examine the aspects and indicators that canform this particular variable. Loneliness is measured by three aspects, namely personality, social desirability, and depression. The population in thisstudy were all semester two students at "X" University in Yogyakarta. The sample in this study were 60 students who weren't originally from Yogyakartaand who were in semester two at the "X" University in Yogyakarta. The sampling technique used is an accidental sampling. Data collection method usesloneliness scale. The research data were analyzed with Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) through the SmartPLS 3.2.8 program. Based on the resultsof data analysis, the aspects and indicators that make up the loneliness variable are declared valid and reliable. The dominant aspect that reflectsloneliness is depression with a loading factor of 0.813, and the weakest aspect is personality, which has a loading factor value of 0.805. This shows thatall aspects and indicators can reflect and shape the loneliness variable. Thus, the measurement model can be accepted because the theory describesthe loneliness fit variable with empirical data obtained from the subject.
