The aim of this research is to develop a valid and reliable scale to determine the attitudes of 4th, 5th, and 6th grade students towards bullying. The study of the scale development was applied to three study groups. The first study group consisted of 120 participants, the second study group consisted of 401 and the third study group consisted of 329 participants. A trial form was created as a result of the literature review, focus group discussion and case study. The trial form was presented to a total of eleven experts in the field for their opinion. The content validity of the scale was confirmed by the panel of judges. SPSS 20 and LISREL 8.51 software were utilized in the analysis of the data. To assess the suitability of factor analysis of the data, Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin (KMO) and Bartlett’s test was conducted prior to exploratory factor analysis. The test results indicated the significance in KMO 0,82 and Bartlett Sphericity Test chi-square value 1216 (p< 0,001). As a result of exploratory factor analysis, it was found that the scale had a three-factor structure (affirming attitude,rejecting attitude and agnostic attitude) and explained 49,42% of the total variance. Cronbach's Alpha value calculated for 15 substances under three-factors on the scale is 779. The difference among %27 sub and super-group items mean was evaluated and the t-test values of the mean scores of the items were found to be significant meaningful (p<0.001). As a result of the confirmatory factor analysis, cohesion indices were calculated as RMSEA=0.053, CFI=0.93, SRMR=0.052, GFI=,0.94 AGFI=0.91. The results of the analyses showed that the Attitudes Towards Bullying Scale for Children is a valid and reliable scale.
