The focus of this presentation is on a construct validation approach to the measurement of multidimensional physical self-concept in physical education settings. For some time there seems to have been general agreement among sport/exercise psychology researchers for the need to develop sport-specific instruments and to evaluate them within a construct validity framework (Nelson, 1989). Vealey (1986) claimed that significant advances in sport/exercise psychology research “await sport-specific conceptualization and measurement instrumentation.” (p. 222). In his review of sport and exercise tests, Ostrow (1990) reported substantial gains over the last 25 years, but emphasized that many tests are still “one shot assessments... lacking further development and refinement. More specifically, Gill. Dzewaltowski, and Deeter (1988) concluded that “within sport psychology the most promising work on individual differences involves the development and use of sport-specific constructs and measures” (p. 139-140) and argued for the construction of multidimensional instruments based on theory, followed by item and reliability analysis, exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis, tests of convergent and divergent validity, validation in relation to external criteria, and application in research and practice. This approach to construct validity is particularly relevant to the measurement of physical self-concept From a historical perspective, most self-concept instruments have either ignored physical self-concept completely or have treated physical self-concept as a relatively one-dimensional domain incorporating characteristics as diverse as fitness, health, appearance, grooming, sporting competence, body image, sexuality, and physical activity, into a single score. This condemn led to the development of Richards Physical Self Concept Scale (RPSCS: Richards, 1988), Marsh’s Physical Self Description Questionnaire (PSDQ: Marsh, Richards, Johnson, Roche, & Tremayne, 1994; Marsh, 1996), and Fox’s Physical Self Perception Profile (PSPP: Fox, 1990; Fox & Corbin, 1989). Although the PSDQ and PSPP have been evaluated extensively in the research. This Of hati, rigorous evaluations of the RPSCS have appeared less frequently. This is undated as this instrument has several important advantages in terms of brevity and applicability across the entire age range from 8 to 60 and beyond (Richards, 1988, Marsh, et al, 1994, Richards, Stiller & Johnson, 2004). Hence, one focus of the present investigation is on systematic evaluation of psychometric properties of the RPSCS, its relation to the PSDQ and PSPP and on the potential uses of the three instruments in physical education
