Turkish which is developed by Thomas, Anderson and Nashon (2008) to investigate
elements of students’ metacognition, self-efficacy and constructivist science
learning processes. In this context linguistic equivalence, validity and
reliability analyses were conducted. The scale was administered to 913
secondary school students aged between 15 and 18 years of age in four cities of
Turkey. Results of the confirmatory factor analyses [ <span> </span>(395, n=913)=1137.10, p<.000; RMSEA=.045; GFI=.92;
CFI=.93; NNFI=.92] show that five factorial construct of the original scale was
preserved in the Turkish form. Factor loadings differ from 0.50 to 0.70 for
items and item-total score correlations ranged from 0.39 to 0.65. The Cronbach alpha
coefficient for whole scale was also calculated as 0.93. </span> <span lang="en-us" style="font-size:10pt;line-height:150%;" xml:lang="en-us"> </span> </p> <p> </p> <p> <br /> </p>}, number={2}, publisher={Balıkesir University}
