Abstract

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to validate the Moral Intelligence Checklist(MIC) of Borba (2001) modified by Kim et al. (2010) for college students majoring in health. Methods: The MIC survey was performed with 348 college students in Gongju, Chungnam. Initial MIC modified by Kim et al. (2010) consists of 7 factors (empathy, self-control, conscience, kindness, fairness, respect and tolerance) and 42 items. Data were analyzed using confirmatory factor analysis. Results: We finally analyzed with 37 items, because 5 items with estimates level below 0.5 were deleted. The Cronbach's ${\alpha}$ of 7 factors were ranged from .780 to .851. Finally, the model fit of GFI(.805), CFI(.864), RMSEA(.033) was satisfied with confirmatory factor analysis using structural equation model. Conclusion: This MIC model is suggested to be used in development of moral intelligence educational programs.
