Research on the instrument of materialism as a personality in Indonesia is still lacking. The purpose of this study is to determine the psychometric properties using Rasch model on materialistic personality scale. This study was conducted on 505 diploma/S1/S2 students aged 18-25 years old using accidental sampling technique. Data analysis used the Rasch model which is supported by Winstep software. The results showed there were 16 items that fit with the Rasch model, rating scale functioned appropriately, reliability (item=0,99, person=0,55, Cronbach's Alpha=0,61). The analysis results also showed that there were five items that were gender biased, and very high accuracy of measurement information would be obtained at the moderate materialistic personality level

Attitudes toward Seeking Professional Psychological Help: Adaptation and Evaluation of ATSPPH-SF using the Rasch Model

The availability of instruments for seeking professional help is crucial in identifying potential delays and failures to seek mental health help. The current study aims to adapt an Indonesian version of the Attitudes toward Seeking Professional Psychological Help-Short Form (ATSPPH-SF) scale and evaluate its psychometric properties using a Rasch modeling approach. Adaptation of the Indonesian scale was carried out in collaboration with a panel of experts under the guidelines of the International Translating Commission. The psychometric evaluation involved 951 respondents (M = 243, F = 708) who participated through an online survey. The results of the Rasch modeling showed that the items of the Indonesian ATSPPH-SF had a good fit with the model. The response categories worked well and reliability was sufficient (item=1, respondent=.59, Cronbach's alpha=.67). This paper highlighted that the ATSPPH-SF Indonesia version is suggested to be valid and reliable. We concluded that ATSPPH-SF can be used in mental health professional help-seeking research in Indonesia
