Abstract:
The validity and the applicability of a Greek translation of the Students' Evaluationsof Educational Quality (SEEQ) scale were examined in two studies. Study 1 assessed thefactorial and construct validity of the Greek SEEQ version with 377 students of the AristotleUniversity of Thessaloniki. The patterns of relationships between the subscales andbackground items were similar to those reported in related past studies. Confirmatory factoranalyses of responses to the SEEQ scale supported a correlated 9 first-order factors model. InStudy 2,317 students selected and rated a 'good' and a 'poor' teacher. The scores on the SEEQsubscales (except for the Workload/Difficulty subscale) differed between good and poorteachers. Multigroup confirmatory factor analyses supported the invariance of the factorstructure across ratings of good and poor teachers. Results provided initial support for thevalidity and the applicability of the SEEQ scale in the Greek university context.
