Tolerance is a concept which carries meanings such
as respecting the differences of people, bearing their disliked feelings and
opinions and being patient with them. It is a prerequisite for the creation of
a peaceful society. Conducted due to the need for a valid and reliable
assessment tool to assess the tendency of tolerance especially at the level of
teacher candidates, this study aimed at ensuring the validity and reliability
of the Teacher Candidates Tolerance Scale developed by Gül and Alimbekov (2018)
under the conditions of Turkey. The 5-point Likert-type scale consisting of 15
items was applied to 543 teacher candidates who were studying at the Faculty of
Education. For examining the four-factor structure of the scale, exploratory
factor analysis (EFA) and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) were executed. The
obtained data show that the 15-item scale comply with the data consistent with
the unique four-factor structure. For the reliability of the scale, the
internal consistency coefficients of the scale were checked. The obtained
Cronbach's Alpha internal consistency coefficient was calculated as .77 for the
whole scale, as .74 for the empathy sub-dimension, as .69 for the importance
sub-dimension, as .70 for the compliance sub-dimension, and as .67 for the
attitude sub-dimension.
