The confirmatory factor analysis proved that the hypothesized three-factor structure model with 27 items was verified as a good fit for the data. The research results indicated that this measurement instrument was of good reliability and validity. Therefore，this instrument may be used as an effective tool for researches on Chinese college students， community of inquiry and online and blended learners， experience.
