Abstract

In the industrial revolution 1.0, cooperative was established to allow its members to work together when dealing with a common problem, namely, the presence of industrial machines to replace human labor. In the industrial revolution 4.0, the similar problem also occurs when human resources will potentially be replaced by robots. In such situation, the cooperative members’ perception of the cooperative structure should be re-explored. Is the cooperative still considered as a structure that can empower its members? Therefore, this study aimed to test the validity of the structural empowerment scale of cooperative members by adapting to the structural empowerment scale developed by Laschinger (2012) on cooperative members using the confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) method. The number of participants was 302 cooperative members. Based on the accuracy index of the CFA analysis results, the six factors model of structural empowerment is extremely similar with the data (Goodness of Fit Index: 0.912; CFI; 0.961, RMSEA: 0.051) with a factor load of 0.521–0.875. All subscales correlated (p <0.001). Based on the results of this study, it can be concluded that the scale of structural empowerment of cooperative members is valid. The scale can be used to evaluate the cooperative empowerment from the perception of cooperative members so it can complete the form of cooperative evaluation that has been prioritizing on increasing the number of members, capital, and assets.
