This study carried out to develop the Power Equity Scale and establish its validity and reliability. The Scale was applied to the first study group comprised the 404 couple/family therapists. After the scale was applied, an exploratory factor analysis has been conducted and the final single factor scale with 19 items has been found. The structure occuring as a result of the exploratory factor analysis has been confirmed by confirmatory factor analysis. The Cronbach Alpha reliability coefficient acquired from the scale is 0.983. As a result of the test-retest method applied to determine the consistency between the measurements of the scale, the correlation value found between the scores obtained from the two applications is 0.98. Depending on these findings, the Power Equity Scale has been determined to be a valid and reliable tool that can be used to collect data in the studies to be conducted in the field.

Bu çalışma, Güç Eşitliği Ölçeği'nin geliştirilmesi, geçerlik ve güvenirliğinin sağlanması amacıyla yapılmıştır. Ölçek 404 çift/aile terapistinden oluşan ilk çalışma grubuna uygulanmıştır. Ölçek uygulandıktan sonra açımlayıcı faktör analizi yapılmış ve 19 maddeden oluşan son tek faktörlü ölçek bulunmuştur. Açımlayıcı faktör analizi sonucunda ortaya çıkan yapı, doğrulayıcı faktör analizi ile doğrulanmıştır. Ölçeğin Cronbach Alpha güvenirlik katsayısı 0,983'tür. Ölçeğin ölçümleri arasındaki tutarlılığın belirlenmesi amacıyla uygulanan test-tekrar test yöntemi sonucunda iki uygulamadan elde edilen puanlar arasında bulunan korelasyon değeri 0,98'dir. Bu bulgulara dayanarak Güç Eşitliği Ölçeğinin alanda yapılacak çalışmalarda veri toplamak amacıyla kullanılabilecek geçerli ve güvenilir bir araç olduğu belirlenmiştir.
