Abstract

The current study evaluated the psychometric properties of the Teacher Homework Involvement Scale (THIS) for undergraduates in online environments. Based on a randomized divided sample, we carried out CFA with Group 1 (n = 306) and Group 2 (n = 306), respectively. CFA findings from both groups indicated that THIS contained three factors: Homework Quality, Autonomy Support, and Feedback Quality. Results further revealed that there was measurement invariance between these two groups. In addition, our findings revealed that latent factor means were invariant across gender for both groups combined. Furthermore, the THIS showed very good to excellent reliability. Finally, consistent with theoretical expectations, the THIS was positively associated with desirable behaviors regarding online homework assignments (effort, time management, and completion), online course quality, and online course satisfaction.
