520 |a This study explored perception towards secondary History curriculum among Somali students in Malaysian Higher institutions. To the researcher's information, there has not single study which examined perception towards secondary history curriculum in Somalia. The study developed a questionnaire survey from six research questions. Participants of the research were undergraduates selected from different Malaysian higher institutions: IIUM, UUM, UTM, UTHM and OTHERS. The study explored and confirmed three latent constructs of secondary History curriculum underpinning the integration among students: (i) knowledge, (ii) loyalty and (iii) behavior in History curriculum. The covariance correlations between the three factors for secondary history curriculum were statistically significant. The study employed Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA) and Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) to explore latent constructs and confirm the underlying dimensions of secondary History validity. It also found that the three constructs have direct influence on Somalis students' perception. A total of 450 survey questionnaires were disseminated for the study of which 350 were returned. In addition, this research explored and confirmed that the invariance of different history curricula was alike across three regions. The research confirmed from the data that the model for underlying dimensions of secondary History curriculum was adequate. For theoretical contributions, the research contributes to the process by promoting and confirming a number of the new consistent and suitable construct estimations in such academic application. The finding of this research also contributes to body of knowledge by exploring factors in history curriculum which influence the perception among students in Malaysian higher institutions. The findings are discussed in light of previous researches and suggestions of future studies are proposed.
