Abstract
The validity and reliability of the Scale of Ethnocultural Empathy (SEE) was tested using a sample of 348 emerging adult university students living in Turkey. Different from the original scale’s four-factor structure, results of principal components analyses and confirmatory factor analyses exposed that there were three factors explaining 45% of the total variance of the SEE in the Turkish culture. There were high correlations among these three factors of the 30-item Turkish version of the SEE, two subscales of the Interpersonal Reactivity Index, and a 10-item Parental Ethnocultural Empathy Scale as proof of its convergent validity. The 30-item Turkish version of the SEE also had high internal consistency and test–retest reliability scores. The group differences for gender and ethnicity are given, and future research suggestions for using that scale in multiracial social contexts are discussed.
