ANNELİK BEKÇİLİĞİ ÖLÇEĞİ’NİN (ABÖ) TÜRKÇE’YE UYARLANMASI

Bu çalışmanın amacı, çocuklarının babalarına erişimini kısıtlayan anneleri değerlendirebilmek için Fagan ve Barnett (2003) tarafından geliştirilen Annelik Bekçiliği Ölçeği'nin (ABÖ) Türkçe'ye uyarlanmasıdır. Orijinal çalışmanın katılımcıları, 3-16 yaş aralığında en az bir çocuğu olan, çocuğu annesiyle ya da hem annesi hem de babasıyla birlikte yaşayan ailelerdeki annelerden oluşmaktadır. Bu çalışmanın katılımcıları ise, lise birinci ya da ikinci sınıfa devam eden 136 çocuğun babasıdır. Katılımcıların yaş ortalaması 45.5'tir (SS=5.9). Çalışmanın geçerlik ve güvenirlik analizleri, uyarlanan Annelik Bekçiliği Ölçeği'nin (ABÖ) yeterli düzeyde psikometrik özelliklere sahip olduğunu göstermektedir. Katılımcıların ABÖ puan ortalamaları, bazı demografik değişkenlere göre de (anne-baba eğitim düzeyi, ekonomik durum, anne-baba çalışma biçimi, çocuk cinsiyeti, anne yaşı) incelenmiştir

TURKISH ADAPTATION OF THE MATERNAL GATEKEEPING SCALE

The purpose of the present study was to make the adaptation of the Maternal Gatekeeping Scale for use in Turkey, which was developed by Fagan and Barnett (2003) to assess that mothers restricting access of their children to the fathers. The participants of the original study had at least one child who was between the ages of 3 and 16 years living with the mother or with the mother and father. But the participants of this study are 136 fathers who have first or second grade high school children. Participant’s mean of age was 45.5 (SD=5.9). The validity and reliability analyses in this study showed that adaptation of Maternal Gatekeeping Scale has sufficient level of psychometric properties. Participants’ mean of Maternal Gatekeeping Scale scores were also investigated according to some demographic characteristics (parents’ educational level, economic condition, parents’ way of work, sex of children, age of mother)
