Abstract
The purpose of this research is to develop a relevant and reliable scale that aims to measure the family boundaries perceived by young individuals. A 64-item item pool was created by the researchers, and the content validity index was calculated on the items where opinions from 10 different experts were submitted. The application form, which reduced to 51 items after experts’ feedbacks, was applied to a total of 384 people and the observations obtained were analyzed by Explanatory Factor Analysis. EFA relieved that the scale has explained 43% of variance and has 3 subscales. The factors are named as "Freedom", "Rules" and "Privacy". The internal consistency coefficient was found .85. Internal consistency coefficients were obtained as .87 for the Freedom subscale, .78 for the Rules subscale, and .64 for the Privacy subscale. The scale was tested with Confirmatory Factor Analysis to confirm the structure it relieved. It has been found that CFA fit indices are within acceptable limits and the scale has convergent and divergent validity.
