The aim of this study is to examine psychometric
properties of the Turkish version of the Milwaukee
Psychotherapy Expectations Questionnaire (MPEQ). 328 adult individuals (248
females, 80 males) participated in the study. The construct validity of the
scale was tested by confirmatory factor analysis. In order to test the
convergent validity, the correlations with Attitudes Toward Seeking
Professional Psychological Help and Thoughts About
Psychotherapy were examined. The reliability of the scale was
calculated by internal consistency and test-retest methods. As a result of the
factor analysis, MPEQ was formed a two-factor structure, namely, process
expectations and outcome expectations similar to the original scale. The
process and outcome expectations subscale were found to be positively
correlated with Toward Seeking Professional Psychological Help Scale
and negatively correlated with Thougts About Psychotherapy Survey. The internal
consistency coefficient of the process subscale of the scale was .84, and the
test-retest reliability coefficient was .82. The internal subscale coefficient
of the scale was .88 and the test-retest reliability coefficient was .76. It was determined that MPEQ is a valid and reliable tool that can be used
to measure the psychotherapy expectations of Turkish individuals.

Milwaukee Psikoterapi Beklentileri Ölçeğinin Türkçeye Uyarlanması: Geçerlik ve Güvenirlik Çalışması

Öz

Bu çalışmanın amacı Norberg, Wetterneck, Sass ve
Kanter (2011) tarafından geliştirilen Milwaukee Psikoterapi Beklentiler Ölçeği
(MPBÖ)’nin Türk kültürü için geçerlik güvenirliğini incelemektir. Araştırmaya
yetişkin bireylerden oluşan 328 kişi (248 kadın, 80 erkek) katılmıştır. Ölçeğin
yapı geçerliği doğrulayıcı faktör analizi ile sınanmıştır. Uyum geçerliğini
sınamak amacıyla Psikolojik Yardım Almaya İlişkin Tutum Ölçeği-Kısa Formu
(PYAİTÖ-KF) ve Psikoterapi Hakkında Düşünceler Ölçeği (PHDÖ) ile
korelasyonlarına bakılmıştır. Ölçeğin güvenirliği ise iç tutarlılık ve test
tekrar test yöntemleriyle hesaplanmıştır.Yapılan faktör analizi sonucunda MPBÖ,
orjinal formuna benzer şekilde süreç beklentileri ve sonuç beklentileri olmak
üzere iki faktörlü bir yapı ortaya çıkmıştır. Ölçeğin süreç beklentileri ve
sonuç beklentileri alt boyutlarının, Psikolojik Yardım Almaya İlişkin Tutum
Ölçeği ile  pozitif ve Psikoterapi
Hakkındaki Düşünceler Ölçeği alt boyutlarıyla negative yönde ilişkili olduğu
saptanmıştır. Ölçeğin süreç alt boyutu iç tutarlılık kat sayısı .84, test
tekrar test güvenirlik katsayısı .82 , sonuç alt boyutu iç tutarlılık kat
sayısı .88, test tekrar test güvenirlik katsayısı ise .76 olarak bulunmuştur.
MPBÖ’nün Türk kültüründe bireylerin psikoterapi beklentilerini ölçebilmek
amacıyla kullanılabilecek geçerli ve güvenilir bir araç olduğu belirlenmiştir.
