DEVELOPING CONSUMPTION AND SAVING SCALE: A STUDY OF VALIDITY AND RELIABILITY

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to develop a valid and reliable scale in order to measure the consumption habit and saving behaviours of the children between 6 and 10. The sampling of the study composes of 147 girl and 119 boy pupils (266 in total) that are receving education in one private and two state primary schools in Eskişehir. Within the scope of the scale reliability, the Cronbach Alpha inner coherence coefficient is examined. While SPSS 18 software is used for explanatory factor analysis, LISREL 8.8 package is adopted for the confirmatory factor analysis. According to the results of the explanatory factor analysis, it is seen that the items of the consumption and saving scale are gathered under 8 dimensions. By considering the results of the confirmatory factor analysis, the accordance indices are quite similar with the values mentioned in the literature. It is concluded that the “Consumption and Saving Scale” could be used in determining the consumption habits and saving behaviours of kids.
