Abstract
The purpose of the present study was to examine the psychometric properties of scores from occupational self efficacy scale (OSES) by Pethe et al. ( 1999 ). Data were obtained from Indian business executives, a population previously untested with OSES. Three interpretable factors were extracted as a result of exploratory factor analysis instead of six-factor structure proposed by the authors of the scale. Confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) results provided support for superiority of three-factor model over alternative models. All the three factors were found to be internally consistent. Results indicated that Pethe et al.’s scale, with minor modification, showed promise for self-efficacy research.
