Abstract

The aim of this study is to adapt the Early Childhood Reading Motivation Scale to Turkish. A general survey model was used as the research method. The study group of the research consists of 571 primary school students aged 6-7 years. The Early Childhood Reading Motivation Scale to be adapted into Turkish was used as the data collection tool, while the Reading Skills Assessment Scale was used in the external criterion validity analysis. The SPSS 22.0 and LISREL 8.5 statistical software programs were used for data analysis. Following the validity and reliability analyses, it was concluded that the Early Childhood Reading Motivation Scale is a valid and reliable scale for measuring reading motivation in primary school students aged 6-7. When the literature was examined, it was seen that no scale aimed at measuring early childhood reading motivation had been developed or adapted to Turkish. In this sense, it is thought that this study will have an important place in the literature.
