Development of an Instrument to Measure Noctcaelador: Psychological Attachment to the Night-Sky
Kelly, William E.
College Student Journal, v38 n1 p100 Mar 2004
Undergraduate students (N = 150) participated in a study developing a 10-item scale (the Noctcaelador Inventory; NI) to measure noctcaelador: adoration and attachment to the night-sky. The NI demonstrated good internal consistency, test-retest reliability, normality, and preliminary validity. The scale significantly correlated with self-reported night-sky viewing behaviors and was not significantly correlated with social desirability. It was concluded that this scale suitably measures individual differences in noctcaelador.
