The structure and dimensionality of the User Information Satisfaction(UIS) construct is an important theoretical issue that received considerable attentions. The acceptance of UIS as a standardized instrument requires confirmation that it explains and measures the user information satisfaction construct and its component. Based on a sample of 670 respondents who participated in dealing with the Public Management Information System(PMIS), this research used a confirmatory factor analysis to test the alternative models of underlying factor structure and assessed the reliability and validity of these factors and items in the PMIS. The result provided a support for a revised UIS model with four first-order factors and one second-order(higher-order) factor in PMIS. To cross-validate these results, the author reexamined two prior data sets. The results shower that the revised model provides better model-data fit in all three data sets.
