1. Multivariable Analysis Report
A. METHODOLOGY
1. Descriptive analysis of mean, standard deviation, Kurtosis and Skewness tests.
2. Reliability of all subscales of Cultural Intelligent Scale (CGS) and Individual Motivation for
Study Abroad (IMSA).
3. Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA) of Cultural Intelligent Scale (CGS) and Individual Motivation
for Study Abroad (IMSA).
4. Paired sample T-test to determine whether there is a significant difference between two set
of means: male vs female (gender), undergraduate vs graduate programs (Study Level) in
term of Cultural Intelligence and Motivation for Study Abroad.
5. One-way ANOVA to determine whether three groups: business & economics vs engineering
and others of the factor “major” is equal in term of Cultural Intelligence and Motivation for
Study Abroad.
6. Two-way ANOVA to determine whether there is a significant interaction between gender &
study level, gender & major, study level & major in term of Cultural Intelligence and
Motivation for Study Abroad and the main effects of the factors.
7. Multiple linear regression to test effect of Cultural Intelligent Scale on Individual Motivation
for Study Abroad.
3. II. Reliability
Reliability of all subscales of Cultural Intelligent Scale (CGS) and Individual Motivation for Study
Abroad (IMSA) is tested using Cronbach’s alpha index. Tab. 2 lists all of the Cronbach’s alpha index
values.

Table 2 reveals that all the subscales of the Cultural Intelligent Scale and Individual Motivation for
Study Abroad Scale are acceptable (Cronbach’s alpha > 70). This result indicates that all sets of
variables are consistent and reliable.
III. Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA)
Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA) is used to examine the underlying structure of Cultural Intelligent
Scale (CGS) and Individual Motivation for Study Abroad (IMSA) and deduct the variables if needed.
1. EFA for Cultural Intelligent Scale (CQS)
Firstly, Exploratory Factor Analysis is applied to Cultural Intelligent Scale (CQS)
In order to test if the data is appropriate for factor analysis or not, Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin Measure of
Sampling Adequacy (KMO) and Bartlett’s Test of Sphericity results are examined. Accordingly, KMO
value is found out as .87, and the result of Bartlett’s Test of Sphericity is [χ2=1426.271; df=190;
p<.00] also found out to be meaningful. These values show that the data is appropriate for EFA.
Then, Varimax orthogonal rotation method is used to examine the factor structure of Cultural
Intelligence Scale. In the analysis, in order to decide which items are appropriate for the scale, the
threshold value for factor loadings is accepted as .50. In addition, for items having high loadings in
more than one factor, the variance between them is accepted to be at least .10. It is decided that
items not providing these requirements would be discarded.
At the end of the first factor analysis, items are loaded under 4 factors in which the eigenvalues are
greater than 1.0. This structure explains 71.9% of the total variance. Therefore, the four-factor
structure is considered to be appropriate for the scale.
According to the Varimax orthogonal rotation results, 1 item (MOT2) is discarded due to being not
coherent with the other items in the same factor. Moreover, 1 item (COG1) having high loadings in
more than one factor is also discarded.
After discarding two items, the analysis is run again. Correspondingly, KMO value is found out as .85
and the result of Barlett’s Test of Sphericity (χ2 = 1092,27, df= 153, p<.000) is found out to be
meaningful.
4. As the result of analysis, the four-factor structure is accepted with Factor 1: Behavioral Cognitive
(BEH, factor loadings are between .743 and .844, explains 46.59% of the variance), Factor 2:
Cognitive (COG, factor loadings vary from .631 to.866, explains 12.64% of the variance), Factor 3:
Metacognitive (MC, factor loadings are between .591 and .841, explains 8.31% of the variance), and
Factor 4: Motivation Cognitive (MOT, factor loadings range from .579 to .795, explains 5.88% of the
variance). All factors as a whole account for 73.427% of the total variance.

5. 2. EFA for Individual Motivation for Study Abroad (IMSA) scale.
Firstly, Exploratory Factor Analysis is applied to Individual Motivation for Study Abroad scale.
After computing, the result of KMO value is .821, and Bartlett’s Test of Sphericity value is
[χ2=368.817; df=45; p<.000], which is meaning and the IMSA is appropriate to run EFA.
Accordingly, items are extracted with fixed 4 factors. This four-factor structure explains 77.04% of
the total variance.
According to the Varimax orthogonal rotation results, three items are removed from the structure
which are CRM3, CRM4 and URM3 because their loadings are not coherent with the other items in
the same factor.
After removing these items, the analysis is repeatedly conducted. the result of KMO value is .764,
and Bartlett’s Test of Sphericity value is [χ2=241.684; df=21; p<.000], which is still appropriate.
The four-factor structure of IMSA now explains 87.11%of the total variance. The structure includes
Factor 1: University-related Motivation with factor loading range from .867 to .893 (explains 49.44%
of the variance), Factor 2: Social-related Motivation with loadings of .866 to .879 (explains 19.44% of
the variance), Factor 3: Culture-related Motivation (CRM) with factor loadings varying from .812
to .856 (explains 10.52% of the variance), Factor 4: Career-related Motivation with loading of .895
(explains 7.71% of the variance).

Before testing the Two-way ANOVA analysis, we need to make sure there is homogeneity of the
variances using Levene’s Test. Table 6 shows that only 3 variances meet the criteria of Levene’s Test
(Sig.<0.05).
In two-way ANOVA with Gender and Study Level, only variance of SRM has homogeneity. However,
the result indicates that there is no significant interaction between the effects of gender and Study
Level on Social related Motivation for study abroad (SRM).
With the combination of Gender and Major, the homogeneity also exists for variance of factors with
SRM, but there is also no significant interaction between the effects of Gender and Major on Social
related Motivation for study abroad (SRM).
Considering the combination of Study Level and Major, the criterion of homogeneity is accepted for
CRM and there is a significant interaction between the effects of Study Level and Major on CRM
9. variable. However, considering Post Hoc result, there is no significant relationship between each
couple of groups.
Finally, simple main effects of every factors were not significant (p>0.05).
