ABSTRACT

The Psychological Skills Inventory for Sports (PSIS-R5) that stands for Psychological Skills Inventory for Sports is one of instruments in measuring six psychological aspects of an athlete in sports settings. Such instrument has been used differently with inconsistent findings, items used, target subjects, etc. This study aims to reveal the extent of factor analysis of this instrument when it applies to different subgroups of 295 Indonesian national athletes. It also intends to ensure which statements are consistent with the psychological aspects measured through assessing reliability and validity. The collected data were quantitatively analyzed to obtain information about construct validity and reliability. After data collection through the PSIS-R5 instrument, they were then analysed both qualitatively and quantitatively. Descriptive statistics, including means, and standard deviations were initially calculated and subsequentially identified the extent of psychometric characteristics of the instruments studied and the application of Alpha Structured formula, KMO and Bartlett's Test. Results showed the PSIS-R5 instrument to be composed of five factors with values of 45.325%; to be in the reliable category of Cronbach's alpha reliability coefficient for self-management, motivation, and psychic readiness factors. However, it was not in the reliable category for failure/defeat thought and team management, but the good category in the stratified alpha reliability.
