DEVELOPING AN ATTITUDE SCALE TOWARDS NUCLEAR POWER PLANTS: VALIDITY AND RELIABILITY STUDIES

Yıl 2017, Cilt: 4 Sayı: 1, 33 - 48, 23.06.2017

The
purpose of this study is to develop a scale to determine pre-service
teachers’ attitudes towards nuclear power plants. During the process of scale
development, validity and reliability studies were conducted with 233
pre-service teachers. Content validity of the scale was provided with expert
opinions. Both explanatory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis
were done to demonstrate the scale's construct validity. After the validity
studies, it is determined that the scale two-factor scale consisted of 21
items and 60.216% of the variance was explained by two factors. Reliability
studies of the scale were conducted with the internal consistency
coefficients for the entire scale and sub-factors.  It was found that the Cronbach alpha (α)
value was 0.944 for the entire scale, 0.946 for the first factor and 0.910
for the second factor. The internal consistency coefficients calculated for
the entire scale and its sub-factors showed that scale had high reliability.

Bu çalışmanın amacı
öğretmen adaylarının nükleer santrale yönelik tutumlarını tespit etmek için
bir ölçek geliştirmektir. Ölçek geliştirme sürecinde geçerlik ve güvenirlik
çalışmaları 233 öğretmen adayı ile yürütülmüştür. Ölçeğin kapsam geçerliği
uzman görüşü ile sağlanmıştır. Ölçeğin yapı geçerliğine kanıt sağlamak için
ise hem açımlayıcı faktör analizi hem de doğrulayıcı faktör analizi
yapılmıştır. Yapılan geçerlik çalışmaları sonucunda ölçeğin iki faktörlü
toplam 21 maddeden oluştuğu ve faktörlerin birlikte varyansın %60.216’sını
açıkladığı belirlenmiştir. Ölçeğin güvenirlik çalışmaları ölçeğin tamamı ve alt
faktörleri için hesaplanan iç tutarlık katsayıları ile belirlenmiştir.
Ölçeğin tamamına ait Cronbach alfa (α) değeri 0.944 iken; birinci faktöre ait
α değeri 0.946 ve ikinci faktöre ait α değeri 0.910 olarak bulunmuştur.
Hesaplanan bu değerler ölçeğin güvenirliğinin oldukça yüksek olduğunu
göstermektedir.
