CASD-14: A Questionnaire on Civic Attitudes and Sustainable Development Values for Service-Learning in Early Adolescents
The service-learning disciplines can offer a unique opportunity for the civic development of sustainable values, as there is a large body of research that links them to values and civic attitudes. Given the need to develop instruments to measure the impact of service-learning methodology in early adolescence, a questionnaire was developed. For this purpose, a group of experts in the field of service-learning proposed a battery of items measuring three different constructs, named as follows: solidarity, compromise–responsibility and respect–dialog. The factor structure was examined, as well as its invariance across sex. The questionnaire confirmed good psychometric properties. Furthermore, the results have shown optimal goodness-of-fit indices. Sex was a variable to consider, as the analysis of invariance did not reach the scalar level. Lastly, the CASD-14 showed optimal test–retest reliability for both subsamples after eight months. The greatest contribution of this study is that it provides a direction for the application and sustainable development of the current scale, which might be considered a valuable assessment tool for early adolescent students’ service-learning. More research is needed with regard to sex-related differences in early adolescence.
