Findings from exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) suggested the use of a four-factor structure to measure student attitudes toward science, math, engineering/technology, and 21st century skills. Subject matter experts and literature reviews provided evidence of content validity. Reliability levels were high for both versions. Furthermore, both the Upper Elementary S-STEM and Middle/High S-STEM Surveys demonstrated evidence of configural, metric, and scalar invariance across grade levels, races/ethnicities, and genders. The findings support the validity of interpretations and inferences made from scores on the instruments’ items and subscales. }, number={7}, journal={Journal of Psychoeducational Assessment}, publisher={SAGE Publications}, author={Unfried, Alana and Faber, Malinda and Stanhope, Daniel S. and Wiebe, Eric}, year={2015}, month={Feb}, pages={622–639} }
