In this study, the replicability of the factor structure of The School Liking and Avoidance Questionnaire for Turkish preschool children and the psychometric properties of the scale were investigated. The SLAQ consists of 14 items and is used to assess children's emotional and behavioral participation in school based on children's perceptions. 345 children aged 5-6 years were included in the study. The findings of exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses, to assess the validity of the scale in Turkish culture, have identified two distinct but related factors: school liking and school avoidance. This result is consistent with the original scale and the adaptation studies in different cultures. However, there were no significant correlations between children and teacher reports on school liking and school avoidance subdimensions. Cronbach's Alpha and test-retest ratios for subdimensions showed adequate psychometric properties. This data support the Turkish version of the SLAQ as a valid and reliable tool, similar to the original version.

土耳其学龄前样本中学校喜好和回避问卷的心理计量学特性

在这项研究中,调查了土耳其学龄前儿童“学校喜好和回避问卷”的因子结构的可复制性以及该量表的心理计量学特性。SLAQ由14个项目组成,用于根据孩子的感知评估孩子在学校的情感和行为参与。这项研究包括了345名5-6岁的儿童。探索性和确认性因素分析的结果,用于评估该量表在土耳其文化中的有效性,已经确定了两个截然不同但相关的因素:学校偏爱和学校回避。该结果与原始规模和不同文化中的适应性研究一致。但是,儿童与教师关于学校喜好和学校回避子维度的报告之间没有显着相关性。克伦巴赫(Cronbach)的Alpha和次测验比率显示出足够的心理计量特性。该数据支持土耳其语版本的SLAQ,是有效且可靠的工具,与原始版本相似。
