Abstract
This study was designed to make a self-structured survey questionnaire reliable and valid. It is considered that in a study a precise, reliable and valid instrumentation is important step to collect the required information for that study. Therefore, a self-made questionnaire that was designed to measure university students’ satisfaction on their courses experiences at university level in Pakistan was made reliable and valid. Reliability of the questionnaire was assured by using Cronbach’s formula on finding alpha values (internal consistency method) and inter-item correlation (relationship among items). Validity was assured (convergent and concurrent) by finding correlation values among items using Spearman’s formula. It took three steps to bring the questionnaire into final shape. In the final version of the questionnaire after deleting one statement and changing the sequence of another all the values of remaining items were found within acceptable range. Thus, the instrument after becoming reliable and valid was ready to use in a study only in Pakistan.
