Abstract
The present study re-evaluated the construct validity and reliability of the
‘Characteristics of Successful EFL Teachers’ questionnaire. A total of 814 EFL learners participated
in the study. The data were analysed, using exploratory factor analyses (EFA),
confirmatory factor analyses (CFA), and reliability analyses. The findings demonstrated all
items were loaded on the factors with the relevant content except for two which were loaded
on three factors with almost similar loadings. Consequently, they were omitted. Accordingly,
factor analysis resulted in seven main factors with 45 items. CFA findings verified the obtained
factorial structure. Reliability analyses also provided satisfactory results. El presente estudio reevalúa la validez de constructo y la fiabilidad del
cuestionario ‘Características de los profesores de enseñanza del Inglés como lengua
extranjera (EFL) exitosos’. En el estudio participaron 814 sujetos. Los datos fueron
analizados utilizando análisis factorial exploratorio (EFA) y confirmatorios (CFA). Los
resultados mostraron que todos los ítems presentaron saturaciones más altas en los
factores a los que pertenecían excepto en dos que presentaron saturaciones similares
en tres factores simultáneamente, por lo que fueron suprimidos. El análisis factorial
presenta, por tanto siete factores entre los que se distribuyen 45 ítems. Los resultados
del análisis factorial confirmatorio se ajusta a esta estructura factorial. El estudio de la
fiabilidad llevado a cabo ofrece resultados satisfactorios.
