The Validation of a Morale Measuring Instrument

Abstract

A morale questionnaire developed in Australia was subjected in the U.S.A. to a test of its validity by using a small sample of schools judged by experts to be of either high or low morale. Following item analysis, a shorter questionnaire was developed which discriminated significantly between a sample of schools of high and low staff morale both in Australia and in the U.S.A.
