Construction and validation of measurement tools Enterprise Architecture university

The current research aims to build and validate measurement tools for model design Enterprise Architecture A university was conducted. The research method is mixed. In the qualitative part, using targeted sampling and open coding method, out of 87 scientific articles and valid documents available in the field of organizational architecture, 35 cases were examined in direct connection with the university and compiled as a questionnaire, then for survey (Delphi method). Regarding the components obtained through snowball sampling, 15 management experts (with three years of management experience) were provided. After modification, the final form was designed with 3 core categories with 93 sub-components (sub-components related to business architecture with 70 items, information systems architecture with 15 items and technology architecture with 11 items). To determine the validity of the questionnaire, content validity, divergent validity and construct validity were used, and Cronbach's alpha (0.913) was used to determine its reliability. The factor loadings of business architecture, information systems architecture, and technology architecture are respectively equal to 0.869, 0.989, and 0.853. For statistical analysis of structural equation modeling, SPSS 26, Smart software PLS 3.2 was used, the results showed that each of the factors has a suitable factor load to predict the main dimensions of the questionnaire, and as a result, the designed tool has high reliability and validity.
