Abstract

This paper presents the re-analysis of a previously published instrument, based on Bloom's taxonomy, developed to measure the cognitive domain of the quality of life of university students. The items in this instrument were assessed using Guttman's Smallest Space Analysis. The findings generally support Bloom's conceptualization, identifying 5 of 6 dimensions in the taxonomy: Knowledge, Comprehension, Application, Analysis, and Evaluation. The findings provide support for the enduring utility of Bloom's taxonomy, and reinforce the ongoing need to test theoretically infromed instruments using sophisticated statistical techniques.
