Confirmatory Factor Analysis for the Terengganu Family Development Foundation (TFDF) Resident Responsibility Negligence Measurement Instrument

Confirmatory Factor Analysis for the Terengganu Family Development Foundation (TFDF) Resident Responsibility Negligence Measurement Instrument

Abstract: There are two ways to conduct Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) using individual confirmatory factor analysis or group confirmatory factor analysis based on the measurement model. The number of items depends on the construct used in the study and the measurement model analysis is conducted separately if the number of items in the construct is more than four. Whereas, pooled CFA runs all measurement models at the same time. Items with a factor loading value of less than 0.6 are considered unimportant to the measurement of the construct and can be discarded Chik, Abdullah, Ismail and Mohd Noor (2024). A total of 250 study samples were involved in this research. Data were analyzed using the IBM-SPSS-AMOS (Structural Equation Modeling-SEM) version 24.0 program. Adjustment tests were conducted to ensure that the indicators tested truly represented the constructs being measured and Confirmatory Factor Analysis was conducted in this study as a prerequisite that must be met. The study findings showed that all correlations between Rent Payment Methods, Attitudes & Lifestyle Habits, Social Symptoms, Moral Collapse, Living Aid and Rent Arrears Payment had values less than 0.85 (<0.85) among residents of the Terengganu Family Development Foundation (TFDF) Rural Flats. The combined results of confirmatory factor analysis of all measurement models (Pooled CFA), proved that all constructs did not have a strong relationship with each other to avoid the existence of multicollinearity problems.
