Development of Animation Attitude Scale (AAS): Validity And Reliability Study

Abstract

The aim of this study is to develop an attitude scale that can determine the attitudes of the undergraduate students to the use of animation in science education. The study group of this research consisted of 240 students enrolled in the 3rd and 4th grades in the primary and science education department. 124 of the participants were primary student teachers, 116 were science student teachers and the average age was 20.6 years. Factor structure of AUASSI attitude scale with Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA) was determined then tested with Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA). Inter-item correlations, item-test correlations, Cronbach's alpha coefficients, test-retest reliability, Keiser-Meyer-Olkin (KMO) and Barlett’s test are included. As a result of the analyzes, the scale was determined as two dimensions as interest and interaction. The results of this study demonstrate that the AUASSI attitude scale is valid and reliable instrument for undergraduate students.
