Abstract

The purpose of this study is to test the validity and reliability of the optimism scale construct, and test the dimensions and indicators that can form this variable. Optimism is measured by three dimensions, namely permanence, personalization and pervasiveness. The population in this study are all students at "X" University in Yogyakarta with a total sample of 60 subjects. The sampling technique used is simple random sampling. The data collection method is a scale of optimism. Research data were analyzed with Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) through the SmartPLS 3.2.8 program. Based on the results of data analysis, the dimensions and indicators that made up the optimism variable were declared valid and reliable. The most dominant dimension that reflects the optimism variable is permanence with a loading factor of 0.781. The weakest dimension that reflects the optimism variable is personalization with a loading factor of 0.721. This shows that all dimensions and indicators are able to reflect and shape the studied variable. Thus, the measurement model can be accepted because theories that describe optimism fit with empirical data obtained from the subject.
