In the study, expert opinions have been asked with the purpose of determining the scope and prospect validity of the scale. Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA) and Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) have been carried out in order to determine the factor structure of the scale. Cronbach Alpha internal consistency value has been checked in the reliability analysis of the scale. The value of reliability of the whole scale has been calculated as .70. It has been seen that the calculated validity and reliability coefficients are within reasonable boundaries.
