Developing and Validating a Teacher Feedback Literacy Scale

Abstract

This study seeks to address a gap in the current literature on teacher feedback literacy by creating a valid and reliable teacher feedback literacy scale. The scale's validity and reliability analyses were conducted in two stages using a sample of 508 academics from faculties of education in Turkey. Following explanatory factor analysis, the scale had three factors named as "Purpose of using feedback", "Way of using feedback" and "Attitude towards feedback" with 23 items. The factors loading values of the three-factor structure were between .408 and .777 and the total variance explained was found to be 49.196. Confirmatory factor analysis revealed that the model fit index values of ᵡ²/df, NNFI, CFI, and IFI were perfect, while RMSEA, SRMR, NFI, and RFI were acceptable. The findings revealed that the 3-factor, 23-item Teacher Feedback Literacy Scale is a valid and reliable measure of teachers' feedback literacy levels.
