Sosyal Yanıtlayıcılık Ölçeği-2-Okul Öncesi Türkçe Formunun Türk Kültürüne Uyarlanması: Geçerlilik ve Güvenilirlik Çalışması

Bu çalışma, otizm spektrum bozukluğu (OSB) olan bireylerin sosyal farkındalık, sosyal biliş, sosyal iletişim, sosyal motivasyon ile sınırlı ilgi ve tekrarlayıcı davranışlarının değerlendirilmesinde kullanılan ve ebeveynler tarafından doldurulan Sosyal Yanıtlayıcılık Ölçeği-2-Okul Öncesi Türkçe Formunun (SOYÖ-2-OTF) Türkçeye uyarlanması ve psikometrik özelliklerinin belirlenmesi amacıyla yapılmıştır. SOYÖ-2-OTF, 30-54 ay aralığındaki çocukların sosyal iletişim becerilerinin değerlendirilmesinde kullanılan, OSB olan ya da OSB için risk altında olan çocukların erken dönemde belirlenmesini sağlayan ve OSB’nin şiddetine ilişkin bilgi veren bir araçtır. Ölçek beş alt boyut ve 65 maddeden oluşmaktadır. Ebeveynler tarafından doldurulan ölçeğin Türkçeye uyarlaması ve geçerlilik-güvenilirlik çalışması, Ankara ve İstanbul’daki 2-5 yaş arasındaki çocuklarla yapılmıştır. Çalışma kapsamında ölçeğin yapı geçerliği, ölçüt geçerliği ve güvenirliği incelenmiştir. Yapı geçerliği için incelenen doğrulayıcı faktör analizine göre ölçeğin uyum değerlerinin hem DSM 5’e göre belirlenmiş iki boyutlu hem de özgün ölçekteki gibi beş boyutlu yapıda kabul edilebilir düzeyde olduğu ve 65 maddeden oluşan SOYÖ-2-OTF’nin özgün ölçeğin faktör yapısıyla uyumlu olduğu bulunmuştur. Ölçüt geçerliği için incelenen SOYÖ-2-OTF’nin alt ölçek ve toplam puanının Gilliam Otizm Derecelendirme Ölçeği-2-Türkçe Versiyonu’nun (GOBDÖ-2-TV) “iletişim”, “sosyal etkileşim” ve “stereotipik davranışlar” alt ölçek puanlarıyla korelasyonunun manidar olduğu bulunmuştur. Güvenilirlik için hesaplanan Cronbach alfa iç tutarlılık katsayısı ve madde toplam korelasyon analizleri de ölçeğin güvenirliğinin iyi düzeyde olduğunu göstermiştir. Bu çalışma sonucunda SOYÖ-2-OTF’nin OSB olan ya da OSB riski olan çocukların belirlenmesinde ve sosyal iletişim davranışlarının ayrıntılı bir şekilde değerlendirilmesinde kullanılabilecek geçerli ve güvenilir bir araç olduğu belirlenmiştir.

Turkish Adaptation of Social Responsiveness Scale-2-Preschool Turkish Form: A Reliability and Validity Study

The purpose of this study was to examine the psychometric properties as well as to conduct cross-cultural adaptation studies of the Social Responsiveness Scale-2-Preschool Turkish Form (SRS-2-PTF) completed by parents that is used to assess social awareness, social cognition, social communication, social motivation, and restricted interests and repetitive behaviors of individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). SRS-2-PTF is a tool which examines social communication skills of children 30 to 54 months age and identifies children with ASD or at risk for ASD during early periods as well as provides information about the severity of ASD. The scale consists of five sub dimensions and 65 items. The parent form of the scale’s Turkish adaptation and reliability-validity studies were conducted with 2 to 5-year-old children in Ankara and İstanbul. The scale’s construct validity, criterion validity, and reliability were examined. The confirmatory factor analysis, which was conducted as the construct validity study, showed that the fit indices of the scale were acceptable for both two-dimensional and five-dimensional structure, and SRS-2-PTF, which has five sub dimensions and 65 items, is consistent with the construct of the original scale’s factor structure. As a criterion validity, sub factors and total score of SRS-2-PTF had significant correlations with “communication,” “social interaction,” and “stereotypical behaviors” sub scales of Gilliam Autism Rating Scale-2-Turkish Version (GARS-2-TV). As the reliability study, Cronbach Alpha coefficients and item total score correlations were calculated, they showed that the scale had a good reliability. As a result of this study, SRS-2-PTF is a valid and reliable tool in identifying children with ASD and at risk for ASD as well as assessing their social communication behaviors in depth.
