Bu araştırmanın amacı, ebeveynlerin ebeveynlik kararlarından duydukları pişmanlıkları ölçmek üzere geliştirilmiş olan Ebeveynlik Pişmanlığı Ölçeği’nin (EPÖ) Türkçe’ye uyarlamasını yapmak ve psikometrik özelliklerini incelemektir. Araştırmada üç farklı örneklem kullanılmıştır. Açımlayıcı faktör analizi 395 (277 anne, 118 baba), doğrulayıcı faktör analizi 304 (196 anne, 108 baba), ölçüt geçerliği ise 87 (59 anne, 28 baba) ebeveynden toplanan veriyle gerçekleştirilmiştir. EPÖ’nün psikometrik özellikleri açımlayıcı faktör analizi, doğrulayıcı faktör analizi, iç tutarlık, yakınsak geçerlik ve ölçüt geçerliği yöntemleriyle incelenmiştir. Yapılan açımlayıcı ve doğrulayıcı faktör analizinde ölçeğin tek faktörlü bir yapı gösterdiği ve faktör yüklerinin .517 ile .893 arasında değiştiği görülmüştür. Güvenirlik kapsamında yapılan Cronbach alfa iç tutarlık katsayısının  = .949, McDonal’s Omega katsayısının ise ω = .937 olduğu sonucuna ulaşılmıştır. Yakınsak geçerliği değerlendirmede AVE ve CR katsayıları incelenmiş ve bunların sırasıyla .79 ve .88 olduğu ortaya konulmuştur. Ölçüt geçerliği için Ebeveyn Tükenmişliği Ölçeği kullanılmıştır ve buna göre EPÖ ile aralarında pozitif yönde yüksek düzeyde bir ilişki (r = .846) olduğu belirlenmiştir. Sonuç olarak tüm psikometrik özellikler birlikte ele alındığında ebeveynliğe ilişkin pişmanlık durumunu ölçen EPÖ’nün ebeveynlerde kullanılabilecek geçerli ve güvenilir bir ölçek olduğunu söylemek mümkündür.

ADAPTATION OF THE PARENTHOOD REGRET SCALE INTO TURKISH: VALIDITY AND RELIABILITY STUDY

Öz

This study aimed to adapt the Parenthood Regret Scale (PRS), which was developed to measure parents' regrets about their parenting decisions, into Turkish and to examine its psychometric properties. Three different samples were used in the study. Exploratory factor analysis was conducted with 395 participants (277 mothers, 118 fathers), confirmatory factor analysis with 304 participants (196 mothers, 108 fathers), and criterion validity with 87 participants (59 mothers, 28 fathers). The psychometric properties of the PRS were examined through exploratory factor analysis, confirmatory factor analysis, internal consistency, convergent validity and criterion validity methods. Exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis revealed that the scale showed a single-factor structure and the factor loadings ranged between .517 and .893. The Cronbach alpha internal consistency coefficient was  = .949 and McDonald's Omega coefficient was ω = .937. The AVE and CR coefficients were examined to assess convergent validity and found that they were .79 and .88, respectively. Regarding criterion validity, the Parental Burnout Scale was used and accordingly, it was determined that there was a high positive correlation (r = .846) with the PRS. In conclusion, when all psychometric properties are considered together, it is possible to say that the PRS, which measures regret about parenting, is a valid and reliable scale that can be used in parents.
