Identity Salience Questionnaire (ISQ)

 


Assessment name: Identity Salience Questionnaire (ISQ)

Scale overview: The Identity Salience Questionnaire (ISQ) is a 6-item self-report measure of two dimensions of an identity: The persistence of the identity in thought and the awareness of the identity in a context.

Read more about the concept, Identity Salience.

Response Type: Items are rated on a scale of agreement from 1 = strongly disagree to 7 = strongly agree.

Scale items

The first three items measure “Chronic Salience” and the second group of three items measure “Contextual Salience.” The letter “X” should be replaced by the researcher based on the specific social identity they are studying. The six items should be presented in random order.

Chronic salience items refer to how often someone thinks about their identity. Contextual Salience items refer to when a person thinks about their identity such as when a person says something in conversation.

 

Reliability and Validity

In the article below, the authors present evidence of stability, reliability, and validity in four studies. The studies focused on identity salience in LGBTQIA+ samples but the scale items are not limited to a specific type of self-identity.

 

Availability: The full scale along with instructions and labels for the ratings can be found in Appendix A of the manuscript, which is page 40 of the pdf file. One source of the document is https://psyarxiv.com/3hmxr/

Academic Self-Efficacy Scale ASE

  Overview The  Academic Self-Efficacy Scale is an application of Self-Efficacy Theory   to examine the relationship between self-efficacy and academic performance using 8-items rated on a 7-point scale. The work of Chemers et al. (2001) has been widely cited. Format The 8-items are rated on a 7-point Likert-type scale ranging from 1 = Very Untrue to 7 = Very True. Sample Items 2. I know how to take notes. 6. I usually do very well in school and at academic tasks.   Reliability, Validity, and Other Research notes In the article describing the development and use of the ASE, the authors observed: “As predicted, academic self-efficacy was significantly and directly related to academic expectations and academic performance.” (Chemers et al., 2001, p. 61)   Sutton et al. (2011) reported Cronbach's alpha of .83 in their study of academic self-esteem and personal strengths. ASE was highly positively correlated with ACT scores (.24) and GPA (.39)....
