摘要
The objective of this study was to investigate the relationship between self-esteem, self-efficacy, and cumulative grade point average of students with disabilities in three selected universities of Ethiopia. Comprehensive sampling technique was employed to select 131 participants. A quantitative research approach; confirmatory factor analysis (CFA), structural equation modeling (SEM), mean differences, and correlation was employed. The general self-esteem and self-efficacy scales were instruments. Based on the CFA 14 items were identified. The composite reliability and validity of the four factors were good. The model fit indices of confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) was a good fit to the data (χ2 = 106.872, df = 70, p <.003. The second model fit indices of structural equation modeling (SEM) was also a good fit to the data (χ2 = 106.025, df = 79, p <.023. The result shows that from the four latent variables: Component FA has significant regression weight with CGPA at p <.043 at t-value (C.R.) of − 2.023. There was statistically significant mean cumulative grade point average (CGPA) difference between males (M = 3.1027, SD =.49915) and females (M = 2.6583, SD =.49915; t (131) = 5.048 p =.000, two tailed). The ANOVA result revealed a statistically significant difference at p <.05 in (CGPA) among students with physical, sensory, and health impairment: F (2, 128) = 17.411, p =.000. The study implies that self-esteem and self-efficacy instruments would be more appropriate to observe relationship with cumulative grade point average. © The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2022.
