Thích nghi và đánh giá đặc tính tâm trắc của thang đo kĩ năng quản lí thời gian (TMQ) trên sinh viên Đại học Huế

Tóm tắt

In higher education, time management skills are considered a key academic competency, contributing to enhanced learning effectiveness, self-regulation, and academic success among students. This study presents the cultural adaptation and psychometric evaluation of the Time Management Questionnaire (TMQ) developed by Britton and Tesser (1991) using a sample of 183 students from Hue University, Vietnam. The Vietnamese version of the instrument was developed following a standardized cross-cultural adaptation procedure prior to the main survey. The results showed that, after the psychometric evaluation, the questionnaire was reduced from 18 to 11 items and demonstrated good internal consistency (Cronbach’s alpha = 0.887). Exploratory factor analysis identified a two-factor structure comprising Planning and Time Organization Skills and Monitoring and Optimizing Time Use, explaining 58.672% of the total variance. The findings provide preliminary evidence for the internal consistency and structural validity of the Vietnamese version of the TMQ, offering a foundation for future validation studies and supporting the assessment of university students’ time management skills in the context of higher education in Vietnam.
