MİNNESOTA YAZI YAZMA TESTİ: TÜRKÇE UYARLAMASI, GEÇERLİK VE GÜVENİRLİĞİ

Year 2006, Issue: 2, 29 - 38, 01.11.2006

Abstract

Özet: Çalışmamızın amacı Minnesota Yazı Yazma Testinin (MYYT)
Türkçe uyarlamasını yaparak geçerlik ve güvenirliğini ölçmektir.
Milli Eğitim Bakanlığı Kurtuluş İlköğretim Okulunda 2. ve 3. sınıfa devam
etmekte olan 8–12 yaş arasında 60 sağlıklı öğrenci çalışmaya dâhil
edilmiştir. Türkçedeki her bir harfi içeren kelime dizisi oluşturulmuştur.
Yazı yazma testinin güvenirliği için 2. ve 3. sınıfa devam eden 60
öğrenciye test birer gün arayla 2 kez uygulanmıştır ve sınıf içi korelâsyon
katsayıları hesaplanmıştır. Testin yapısal geçerliği için sınıf
öğretmenlerinin raporlarına göre yazısı iyi olan (n=30 ) ve yazısı kötü olan
(n=30), 2. ve 3. sınıf öğrencileri değerlendirilmiştir. Uyum geçerliği için
sağlıklı (n=32) ve sol hemiplejik serebral paralizili (n=26) çocuklarda
MYYT ile Güney Kaliforniya Duyu Bütünlüğü Testlerinden desen
kopyalama testinin ilişkisine bakılmıştır.
Yazı yazma testinin; hız (R1 > 0,90), okunaklılık (R1 > 0,90), şekil (R1 >
0,90), hizalama (R1 > 0,90), ölçü (R1 > 0,90), aralık (R1 > 0,90)
kategorilerinde, yüksek düzeyde güvenilir olduğu bulunmuştur. MYYT iyi
ve kötü yazı yazan öğrencilerde hız (p< 0,005), okunaklılık (p< 0,001),
şekil (p < 0,001), ölçü (p < 0,05), hizalama (p< 0,001) ve aralık (p< 0,001)
kategorilerinde yüksek düzeyde anlamlı farklılıklar ortaya koymuştur.
Serebral paralizili çocuklarda desen kopyalama ve MYYT’nin ölçü
kategorisi arasında yüksek düzeyde (r = 0,759, p <0,001) ilişki olduğu
gözlenmiştir.
Çalışmamızın sonuçları MYYT’nin Türkçe uyarlamasının, 8–12 yaş arası
Türk çocuklarının yazı yazma yeteneğini değerlendirmede kullanılabilecek
güvenirliği ve geçerliği olan bir test olduğunu göstermiştir

Abstract

Abstract: The aim of this study was to determine the reliability and
validity of Minnesota Handwriting Test making Turkish version The students between ages 8-12 attending second and third class of
Kurtuluş Primary School were included the study. The word sequences
which consist of each Turkish letter were created. The handwriting test
was applied two times to 60 students for reliability and intraclass
correlation coefficient was calculated. According to the class teachers’
reports, students with good (n=30) and poor (n=30) handwriting were
assessed to test constructional validity. The relationship between
Minnesota Handwriting Test and design copying subtest of Ayres
Southern California Sensory Integration Test was investigated in children
with hemiplegic cerebral palsy (n=26) and healthy children (n=32) to test
concurrent validity.
The handwriting test was highly reliable in rate (R1>0.90), legibility
(R1>0.90), form (R1>0.90), alignment (R1>0.90), space (R1>0.90) and
size (R1>0.90) parameters. The significant differences were found in rate
(p<0.005), legibility (p<0.001), form (p<0.001), size (p<0.05), alignment
(p<0.001) and space (p<0.001) parameters in children with good and poor
handwriting. The significant relationship was observed between design
copying and size parameter of handwriting test (r: 0.759, p<0.01).
The results of our study demonstrated that the Turkish version of
Minnesota handwriting test is reliable and valid instrument to assess
handwriting abilities of Turkish children between ages 8-12.
