Summary: | This study examines the psychometric properties of the workgroup norms construct in the Nigerian context.Three hundred and fifty-four teaching staff from various universities located in north-west geopolitical zone of Nigeria participated in the survey.The data was analysed using Smart PLS 2.0 M3 software.Our results suggest that workgroup norms can be measured by the two theoretical dimensions: perceived descriptive norm and perceived injunctive norm.The findings also demonstrated acceptable internal consistency reliability, convergent validity and discriminant validity for each dimension of workgroup norms.On the basis of these findings, we concluded that workgroup norms scale construct can be a useful in measuring the workgroup norms construct in the Nigerian education context. |
