Milwaukee Psikoterapi Beklentileri Ölçeğinin Türkçeye Uyarlanması: Geçerlik ve Güvenirlik Çalışması

Bu çalışmanın amacı Norberg, Wetterneck, Sass ve Kanter (2011) tarafından geliştirilen Milwaukee Psikoterapi Beklentiler Ölçeği (MPBÖ)’nin Türk kültürü için geçerlik güvenirliğini incelemektir. Araştırmaya yetişkin bireylerden oluşan 328 kişi (248 kadın, 80 erkek) katılmıştır. Ölçeğin yapı geçerliği doğrulayıcı faktör analizi ile sınanmıştır. Uyum geçerliğini sınamak amacıyla Psikolojik Yardım Almaya İlişkin Tutum Ölçeği-Kısa Formu (PYAİTÖ-KF) ve Psikoterapi Hakkında Düşünceler Ölçeği (PHDÖ) ile korelasyonlarına bakılmıştır. Ölçeğin güvenirliği ise iç tutarlılık ve test tekrar test yöntemleriyle hesaplanmıştır.Yapılan faktör analizi sonucunda MPBÖ, orjinal formuna benzer şekilde süreç beklentileri ve sonuç beklentileri olmak üzere iki faktörlü bir yapı ortaya çıkmıştır. Ölçeğin süreç beklentileri ve sonuç beklentileri alt boyutlarının, Psikolojik Yardım Almaya İlişkin Tutum Ölçeği ile pozitif ve Psikoterapi Hakkındaki Düşünceler Ölçeği alt boyutlarıyla negative yönde ilişkili olduğu saptanmıştır. Ölçeğin süreç alt boyutu iç tutarlılık kat sayısı .84, test tekrar test güvenirlik katsayısı .82 , sonuç alt boyutu iç tutarlılık kat sayısı .88, test tekrar test güvenirlik katsayısı ise .76 olarak bulunmuştur. MPBÖ’nün Türk kültüründe bireylerin psikoterapi beklentilerini ölçebilmek amacıyla kullanılabilecek geçerli ve güvenilir bir araç olduğu belirlenmiştir.

Adaptation of Milwaukee Psychotherapy Expecta-tions Scale into Turkish: Validity and Reliability Study

The aim of this study is to examine psychometric properties of the Turkish version of the Milwaukee Psychotherapy Expectations Questionnaire (MPEQ). 328 adult individuals (248 females, 80 males) participated in the study. The construct validity of the scale was tested by confirmatory factor analysis. In order to test the convergent validity, the correlations with Attitudes Toward Seeking Professional Psychological Help and Thoughts About Psychotherapy were examined. The reliability of the scale was calculated by internal consistency and test-retest methods. As a result of the factor analysis, MPEQ was formed a two-factor structure, namely, process expectations and outcome expectations similar to the original scale. The process and outcome expectations subscale were found to be positively correlated with Toward Seeking Professional Psychological Help Scale and negatively correlated with Thougts About Psychotherapy Survey. The internal consistency coefficient of the process subscale of the scale was .84, and the test-retest reliability coefficient was .82. The internal subscale coefficient of the scale was .88 and the test-retest reliability coefficient was .76. It was determined that MPEQ is a valid and reliable tool that can be used to measure the psychotherapy expectations of Turkish individuals.
