The respondents of this study are chosen purposively. As many as 39 Likert scale items are constructed and tested on the principals and teachers of senior high schools in Bogor, Indonesia. The instruments constructed are analyzed and revised by expert judgment. The items were revised and then tested by the panelists. The data was collected and analyzed using Aikens V Index to measure the validity of the instruments. As many as 32 instrument items have good criteria because > 0.69 was V-table, and the rest were dropped. Additionally, the result of the reliability test using Cronbach Alpha is highly significant. As many as 32 significant items were tested on the respondents and analyzed using Mplus to confirm the loading factors of the items.
