This study used a sample of 539 high school students in Bandung and Cimahi. The construct reliability (CR) of the instrument was α=0.929. The evidence for internal structure using CFA showed that the CDMSE scale has an acceptable goodness of fit index. The standardized loading factor item is in the range 0.710-0.998.
