Ebeveynlerin Psikolojik Hizmetlere Yönelik Tutumları Envanteri: Türkçe Formunun Geçerlik ve Güvenirlik Çalışması

Bu çalışmanın amacı, Turner (2012) tarafından geliştirilen, Ebeveynlerin Psikolojik Hizmetlere Yönelik Tutumları Envanterini (EPHYTE) Türkçeye uyarlamak ve psikometrik özelliklerini incelemektir. Araştırma 5-9 yaş aralığında, en az bir çocuğu olan iki farklı çalışma gurubundan anne ve babalar (N1=433; N2=56) ile yürütülmüştür. Açımlayıcı faktör analizi sonucunda envanterin Türkçe formunun toplam varyansın %53’ünü açıkladığı ve özgün formda olduğu gibi üç boyutlu bir yapıya sahip olduğu belirlenmiştir. Doğrulayıcı faktör analizi sonucunda, 21 madde ve üç alt boyuttan (psikolojik yardım aramaya ilişkin niyet, yardım almaya ilişkin tutum, etiketlenme) oluşan modelin iyi uyum verdiği görülmüştür (χ2 (186, N = 433) = 476,82, χ²/df= 2.564, p < .001; GFI = 0.91; CFI = 0.92; TLI = 0.91; SRMR = 0.055; RMSEA = 0.060). Envanterin faktör yükleri .28 ile .81, madde toplam korelasyon katsayıları .25 ile .67, test-tekrar test korelasyon katsayıları .69 ile .78, iç tutarlılık güvenirlik katsayıları ise .80 ile .88 arasında değişmektedir. Sonuçlar, envanterin Türkçe formunun geçerli ve güvenilir bir envanter olduğunu göstermektedir.

The Parental Attitudes Toward Psychological Services Inventory: Validity and Reliability Study of The Turkish Form

The objective of this study is to adapt Parental Attitudes Toward Psychological Services Inventory (PATPSI) which was developed Turner (2012) to Turkish and examine its psychometric properties. The study was conducted with parents (N1=433, N2=56) from two different study groups who had at least one child between the ages of 5 and 9 years. As a result of the exploratory factor analysis, it was determined that the Turkish version of the inventory explained 53% of the total variance and that it had a three-dimensional structure as in the original form. As a result of confirmatory factor analysis, it was found that the model consisting of 21 items and three sub-dimensions (help-seeking intention, help-seeking attitudes, stigmatization) seemed to fit well (χ2(186, N = 433) = 476,82, χ²/df= 2.564, p < .001; GFI = 0.91; CFI = 0.92; TLI = 0.91; SRMR = 0.055; RMSEA=0.060). The factor loadings of the inventory ranged from .28 to .81, item total correlation coefficients ranged from .25 to .67, test-retest correlation coefficients ranged from .69 to .78, and internal consistency reliability coefficients ranged from .80 to .88. The results show that inventory has also valid and reliable structure in Turkish culture.
