Abstract

The purpose of the study is to conduct validity and reliability studies by developing computer games attitude scale’s parent form. In this study, there were two different study groups. The first study group, consists of 421 parents, applied exploratory factor analysis. The second group, consists of 297 parents, applied confirmatory factor analysis. The analysis resulted two factor structure, consisting of 6 items which have factor loadings between 0.38 and 0.64. This structure explained 54.7 % of the total variance. The first factor was named as negative attitude, while the second factor was named as positive attitude. According to the results of confirmatory factor analysis, the model fit with the factors. The internal consistency of the first dimension is .85 and the internal consistency of the second dimension is .81. The scale retested after 3 weeks from the first test. The results of test retest reliability indicated that there are positive correlations between two results of negative attitude (r = .74) and there are positive correlations between two results of positive attitudes (r = .76). These results showed that this scale is a reliable and valid measurement instrument.
