Strengths
Strong psychometric performance: high discrimination, acceptable internal consistency, and good overall model fit with clear separation of factors

Cross-group comparability concerns: several items may not demonstrate measurement invariance across racial/ethnic groups, gender, and first generation status
The Online Self-Regulated Learning Questionnaire (OSLQ) is a 24-item survey. Researchers at Baylor University and Texas Tech University developed this instrument. It measures how well students manage their own learning in online or blended environments. The tool is designed for students at the post-secondary level. The OSLQ assessment covers six specific areas. These include goal setting, environment structuring, and task strategies. It also measures time management, help seeking, and self-evaluation. Students answer questions using a 5-point Likert scale. Educators use this tool for diagnostic purposes and to monitor student progress. High scores on this survey are linked to better academic performance. This instrument helps schools understand which students are prepared for the demands of digital learning.
