Behavioural Intention and Dependency on ChatGPT among College Students: Scale Development and Validation
Malvika Mishra, Madalaimuthu Anthony
Abstract: The usage of ChatGPT has grown exponentially for various purposes. It?s necessary to assess the motivation to use in academic context. This research aims to assess behavioural intention and dependency on ChatGPT among college students in India. The draft scale consisted of 21 items measuring eight different aspects such as performance anticipation, expected effort, enabling circumstances, educating value, hedonistic intent, habit, intentional behaviour and educatory use. The items were subjected to expert opinion for content validity and were modified accordingly. The study was carried out among college students (N=150) through an online survey. KMO sampling adequacy was found to be 0.919 and Bartlett?s Test was significant (chi - square = 1536.374, df=45, p<0.001) and exploratory factor analysis was conducted to examine the construct validity of the scale. The results of the principal component analysis using varimax rotation indicated that two factors explained 77.71% of the total variance with factor loading values ranging between 0.652 and 0.906. Cronbach coefficient for the total of the 10 - item scale under two factors was calculated with Cronbach ? as 0.886. It is found to reliable and valid to assess behavioural intention and dependency to use ChatGPT in Indian context.
