Development and validation of the English writing strategy inventory
This study aimed to develop and validate an English writing
strategy inventory (EWSI) that measures English writing strategies at the
tertiary level. To achieve this goal, we focused our analysis primarily on
construct and response validity, and took a mixed approach using a statistical
technique and qualitative method, think-aloud
protocol analysis. The think-aloud protocol analysis with four
students identified three main types of issues—writing context, writing tasks,
and wording problems—that could leave respondents uncertain about how to answer
and could therefore hamper the questionnaire's validity and reliability.
