| Sumario: | Motivational self-regulation allows students to sustain and/or improve their motivation to achieve their goals. This self-regulation variant is related to variables such as academic performance, classroom climate, and academic procrastination, among others. The Motivational Self-Regulation Strategies Questionnaire (MRSQ) operationalized the construct. The questionnaire was adapted in Córdoba (Argentina), dividing the dimensions of goal regulation according to the strategies employed ¬— whether by approximation or avoidance. The present research proposes to analyze new evidence of the validity and reliability of the MRSQ. A total of 412 university students from Buenos Aires (Argentina) participated in the study. The analysis of the internal structure of the instrument using confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) and exploratory structural equation modeling (ESEM) verified a better fit for the 8-factor model. Further, a measurement invariance analysis between samples of students from Buenos Aires and Córdoba verified the metric equivalence of the MRSQ. The internal consistency of the dimensions was adequate (> .70). Next, the concurrent validity test yielded positive and significant correlations with learning approaches and negative correlations with academic procrastination. Statistical norms were also computed. This work provides new evidence on the psychometric properties of the MRSQ and norms that enable its use and interpretation within applied settings. |
