The purpose of this study is to examine the validity and reliability of the Turkish version of the Online Counseling Attitudes Scale OCAS and Face-to-Face Counseling Attitudes Scale OCAS Rochlen, Beretvas, & Zack, 2004 . OCAS and FCAS loaded on four factors and the factors were named Value of Online Counseling OC-V , Discomfort with Online Counseling OC-D , Value of Face-to-Face Counseling FC-V and Discomfort with Face-to-Face Counseling FC-D . The results of confirmatory factor analysis indicated that the four dimensional model was well fit x²=323.61, df=157, p=0.00000, RMSEA=.056, NFI=.94, CFI=.96, IFI=.96, RFI=.92, GFI=.91, and SRMR=.071 . Factor loadings ranged from .47 to .88. The internal consistency coefficients of four subscales were .84, .80, .88 and .78. Overall, findings demonstrated that OCAS and FCAS may be used as a valid and reliable instrument in order to assess attitudes toward online counseling and face to face counseling of individuals.
