Bu çalışmanın amacı, Davies, Forman, Rasi ve Stevens tarafından (2002) geliştirilmiş
olan Duygusal Güvenlik Ölçeği’nin (DGÖ), üniversite öğrencileri için geçerlik ve güve- nirliğini yapmaktır. Araştırmaya 370 üniversite öğrencisi katılmıştır. Öğrenciler DGÖ ve
Çocukların Evlilik Çatışmasını Algısı Ölçeği’ni sınıf ortamında tamamlamışlardır. Faktör
analizi sonucunda, özgün ölçeğe oldukça benzeyen ve teoriyle de tutarlı olan altı faktör
elde edilmiştir. Alt ölçeklerin Cronbach Alfa güvenirlik katsayıları .68-.88 değerinde bu- lunmuştur. Sonuçlar ışığında, DGÖ’nin üniversite öğrencileri için kullanılabilecek geçerli
ve güvenilir bir ölçek olduğu düşünülmektedir.

Emotional Security Scale (ESS): A Validity and Reliability Study in University Students
Year 2016,
Volume: 36 Issue: 2, 45 - 64, 20.12.2016
The aim of this study was to test the validity and reliability of Emotional Security Scale
(ESS) which is developed by Davies, Forman, Rasi ve Stevens (2002) in university students.
The research was conducted on 370 university students. The participants completed the ESS
and Children’s Appraisals of Marital Conflict in classroom situation. The factor analysis
resulted in six factors that is very similar to the original scale and consistent with theory. Cronbach’s alpha values of subscales were found between .68-.88. These results suggest
that Emotional Security Scale is a valid and reliable instrument for university students.
