Summary: | In this study, the researcher developed an instrument to measure the level of
adolescents’knowledge and perceived awareness on cyber-bullying. This instrument is known
as the Cyber-bullying Knowledge and Awareness Instrument (CBKAi).Content validity was
performed to determine whether the instrument comprises a representative sample of the
behaviour domain to be measured. CBKAi was validated by a senior lecturer from a public
university who is also an expert in cyber-bullying and also two secondary school
counsellors.Apart from that, CBKAi was also tested for its reliability with 30 respondents. The
Cronbach’s alpha internal consistency reliability coefficient for the instrument is 0.919 for
items that are related to knowledge and 0.810 for items that are related for perceived
awareness. The statistics show that CBKAi is a reliable instrument to be utilized to measure
knowledge and perceived awareness towards cyber-bullying among adolescents. |
