Abstract

Introduction: Anxiety and self-efficacy are psychological factors that play an important role in competency testing. The high anxiety rate of competency test participants in Indonesia which reaches 94.9% and the contribution of self-efficacy in influencing competence reaches 68.7% causes anxiety and self-efficacy to be important to consider as a maximum effort to prepare for competency tests, but until now the right instrument has not been found that can measure anxiety and self-efficacy in competency tests. This study aims to develop an instrument that can identify anxiety and self-efficacy of competency tests that have been tested for validity and reliability. Methods: The author arranges 20 items of anxiety and 15 items of self-efficacy instruments with four answer scales. Content validity was carried out by expert judgment by three experts using the Delphi technique. The instrument was tested on 529 students. The construct validity test of the instrument used a confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) approach. CFA analysis testing was carried out with the help of MPlus 7.4 software. Results: The study resulted in a modified model that was fit with 11 valid anxiety items with an estimated value of 0.700-0.861 and seven valid self-efficacy items with an estimated value of 0.693-0.902.). Internal consistency with Cronbach’s alpha was 0.925 for anxiety and 0.897 for self-efficacy instruments. Conclusion: A short and valid instrument has been produced with a high estimated value for each item to measure anxiety and measure self-efficacy in the competency test.
