Abstract
There are still limitation in studies that highlight the development of instruments that can measure entrepreneurial creative thinking. Therefore, the Entrepreneurial Creative Thinking Test (ECTT) was developed to measure the level of entrepreneurial creative thinking among Form Four students in secondary schools. ECTT includes ten items consisting of five constructs namely Investigation, New Idea, Design, Create and Commercial. The sample consisted of 187 Form Four students aged 15 to 16 years from four secondary schools in Tawau, Sabah. A study conducted quantitatively using a survey design was conducted to determine the extent to which the validity and reliability of this instrument can meet the psychometric characteristics of a research. Item analysis allows valid, fair and quality items to be selected while otherwise are improved and refined. This study applied the Rasch Measurement Model to determine the validity and reliability of the ECTT instrument. Analysis has been done on respondent fit, item fit, item polarity, unidimensionality as well as reliability and item-respondent separation. The findings of the study found that the ECTT instrument has high item reliability with a value of .97. In conclusion, ECTT has good validity and high reliability in measuring the level of entrepreneurial creative thinking among Form Four students in secondary schools.
