Abstract

Scale of satisfaction with the scientific research performance evaluation mechanism of humanities and social sciences in universities was developed to investigate the current teachers’ satisfaction with the scientific research performance evaluation mechanism of humanities and social sciences in universities, and to identify the problems in the scientific research performance evaluation mechanism of humanities and social sciences in universities in order to promote targeted improvements in universities, and further improve the scientific research performance evaluation mechanism of humanities and social sciences in universities. In developing the scale, the initial scale was compiled on the relevant literature and semi-structured interviews. The scale was developed through the steps of item development, draft scale development, expert validity establishment, data collection of pre-test scale, item analysis, exploratory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis. The quality of the scale was assessed through reliability test and validity test. The scale includes two key dimensions: evaluation mechanism elements and evaluation mechanism operation. The scale provides a feasible tool for the measurement of satisfaction with the evaluation mechanism of university humanities and social sciences research performance, proposes a new perspective for the study of the evaluation mechanism of university humanities and social sciences research performance, and expands new ideas for comprehensive understandings of the evaluation mechanism of university humanities and social sciences research performance.
