Adaptasi dan Uji Psikometri Alat Ukur Digital Well Being

Abstract

Digital technology has become an integral part of everyday life, yet standardized instruments for assessing digital well-being within the Indonesian cultural context remain limited. This study aimed to adapt the Digital Well-Being Scale into Indonesian and examine its psychometric properties in a sample of 300 digitally active individuals aged 18–40 years. The original scale consisted of 20 items measuring mental, emotional, and physical well-being.

Item analysis led to the eliminated of four physical well-being items that did not meet item–total correlation criteria, resulting in a 16-item Indonesian version. Exploratory Factor Analysis revealed a two-factor structure with satisfactory factor loadings, while internal reliability was very high (Cronbach’s alpha = 0.915). Confirmatory Factor Analysis further supported acceptable model fit (CFI and TLI ≥ 0.90; RMSEA and SRMR ≤ 0.08).

These findings suggest that digital well-being in the Indonesian context is conceptualized as a two-dimensional mental–emotional construct, whereas physical well-being is better understood as a consequence of digital technology use. Overall, the Indonesian version of the Digital Well-Being Scale demonstrates strong validity and reliability for assessing subjective well-being in digital environments and provides a foundation for future research and culturally sensitive interventions
