MATEMATİK KAYGISI ÖLÇEĞİ KISA FORMU’NUN TÜRKÇE VERSİYONU: GEÇERLİK VE GÜVENİRLİK ÇALIŞMASI

Year 2025, Volume: 9 Issue: 1, 309 - 336, 28.03.2025

Abstract

Bu araştırmanın amacı Núñez-Peña ve Guilera (2023) tarafından üniversite öğrencilerinin matematiğe yönelik kaygılarını ölçmek amacıyla geliştirilen dokuz maddelik Matematik Kaygısı Ölçeği Kısa Formu’nu (BMAS) Türk kültürüne uyarlamak ve ölçeğin geçerlik ve güvenirlik çalışmasını yapmaktır. Araştırmaya bir devlet üniversitesinin otuz iki farklı lisans programında öğrenim görmekte olan 864 lisans öğrencisi gönüllü katılım sağlamıştır. Yapılan Doğrulayıcı Faktör Analizi (DFA) sonuçlarına göre ölçeğin model veri uyumunun iyi düzeyde ve Türkiye’deki üniversite öğrencileri için geçerli olduğu belirlenmiştir. BMAS için elde edilen iç tutarlılık katsayısı “Matematik sınav kaygısı” alt boyutu için α=.81, ω=.81; “Sayısal işlem kaygısı” alt boyutu için α=.84, ω=.85 ve “Matematik dersi kaygısı” alt boyutu için α=.63, ω=.64 bulunmuştur. Dört hafta arayla elde edilen veriler üzerinde hesaplanan korelasyon katsayıları madde düzeyinde .81 ile .87 arasında değişiklik göstermiş, BMAS toplam puanı için ise .88 olarak hesaplanmıştır. Ölçekteki maddelerin toplam test puanıyla olan korelasyonları alt boyutlarda .73 ile .91 arasında, ölçeğin tamamı için .56 ile .67 arasında değişiklik göstermiştir. Ölçekte cinsiyet ve yaşa göre Değişen Madde Fonksiyonu (DMF) gösteren madde bulunmadığı tespit edilmiştir. BMAS’tan alınan toplam puan ortalamalarının kadın ve erkeklerde manidar bir şekilde değişiklik göstermediği ancak yaş grupları arasında farklılaşmanın söz konusu olduğu belirlenmiştir. Ayrıca BMAS’ın İki Boyutlu Matematik Kaygısı Ölçeği ile Matematik Okuryazarlığı Özyeterlik Ölçeği arasındaki ilişkilerin genel olarak orta düzeyde olduğu ortaya konulmuştur. Bu bulgulara dayanılarak, BMAS’ın lisans öğrencilerinin matematik kaygılarını belirlemek amacıyla kullanılabilecek geçerli, güvenilir ve kullanışlı bir ölçek olduğu belirlenmiştir. Böylece BMAS’ın zaman sınırlamasının olduğu araştırmalarda üniversite öğrencilerinin matematik kaygılarını belirlemek amacıyla kullanılabilecek alternatif bir araç olduğu sonucuna ulaşılmıştır.

TURKISH VERSION OF BRIEF MATH ANXIETY SCALE: A STUDY OF VALIDITY AND RELIABILITY

Year 2025, Volume: 9 Issue: 1, 309 - 336, 28.03.2025

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to adapt the 9-item Brief Mathematics Anxiety Scale (BMAS), developed by Núñez-Peña and Guilera (2023) to measure university students' mathematics anxiety, into Turkish culture and to conduct validity and reliability analyses of the scale. The study included 864 volunteer undergraduate students from thirty-two different degree programs at a public university. According to the Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) results, the scale demonstrated good model-data fit and was found to be valid for university students in Turkey. The internal consistency coefficients obtained for BMAS were α=.81, ω=.81 for the "mathematics test anxiety" subscale; α=.84, ω=.85 for the "numerical operation anxiety" subscale; and α=.63, ω=.64 for the "mathematics course anxiety" subscale. The correlation coefficients calculated from data collected four weeks apart ranged between .81 and .87 at the item level, while the reliability coefficient for the total BMAS score was calculated as .88. The correlations between the scale items and total test scores ranged from .73 to .91 for subscales and from .56 to .67 for the full scale. No items showing Differential Item Functioning (DIF) based on gender or age were identified. While no significant differences were found between male and female participants' total BMAS scores, differences were observed among age groups. Additionally, the relationships between BMAS and both the Two-Dimensional Mathematics Anxiety Scale and Mathematics Literacy Self-Efficacy Scale were found to be generally at moderate levels. Based on these findings, BMAS was determined to be a valid, reliable, and practical scale that can be used to assess mathematics anxiety among undergraduate students. Consequently, it was concluded that BMAS serves as an alternative tool that can be used in time-constrained research to determine university students' mathematics anxiety.
