Abstract: (45 Views)
Background: People with disability may be less motivated to participate in social activities due to the various barriers they face. Examining social motivation in these individuals can lead to identifying their needs, capabilities, and improving support and intervention programs. Despite the importance of social motivation in people with disability and the need to have a reliable tool to measure it, a standard scale for assessing social motivation in people with disability has not been found in Iran.
Aims: This study aimed to investigate the psychometric properties of the social motivation scale in people with disability in Yazd city.
Methods: The method of this research was descriptive and correlational. The statistical population of the study included all individuals aged 18 to 40 with physical, motor, psychological, and mental disabilities in Yazd city, their number in 2024 was 1540. The sample size of the study was 520 people using simple random sampling method. Data collection tools included scales of social motivation (Phillips et al., 2021), Social Responsibility (Guff, 1987), Social Competence (Felner, 1990), and Loneliness Feeling (Dehshiri et al., 2008). Data analysis was performed using Exploratory factor analysis, Confirmatory factor analysis and Cronbach's alpha coefficient using SPSS25 and AMOS24 software.
Results: The results showed that social motivation has a positive and significant relationship with responsibility and social competence (P<0.001) and an inverse and significant relationship with loneliness feeling (P<0.001). In examining the reliability of the social motivation scale, Cronbach's alpha for all subscales was above 0.77. The results of exploratory factor analysis showed that the scale has convergent and divergent construct validity. Confirmatory factor analysis also confirmed the 5-factor structure of the social motivation scale and showed that the model has a good fit in the sample of Iranian disabled people.
Conclusion: Given the confirmation of the reliability and validity of the Social Motivation Scale in samples with disability in Iran, psychologists can use it to assess the level of social motivation of people with disability. This tool can be very helpful in developing and improving support and intervention programs that aim to improve the quality of life and increase social participation of people with disability.
