Özet

It is important to determine the attitude which is an indicator of emotions for a lesson. In particular, the development of the scale to be used to determine the attitude of the parents towards the science lesson will contribute to the field. The aim of this study is to develop a scale for use in determining attitudes of the parents towards the science lesson. The scales were applied to 389 parents of the 6th, 7th and 8th grades students. SPSS and LISREL programs were used to analyze the data. The reliability values and exploratory factor analyzes of the scales were calculated with the help of SPSS program. Cronbach Alpha value, Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin and Bartlett tests were performed at this stage. Afterwards, confirmatory factor analysis was performed with the help of LISREL program and compliance indices of the scales were determined. Then, independent sample T-Test and one-way ANOVA tests were used to answer the research questions. As a result of analyzes, the reliability and exploratory factor analysis of the scale were all acceptable. In addition, the confirmatory factor analysis pattern table values are acceptable but some of the compliance indices are below the acceptable values. As a result, a scale was developed to determine the attitudes of the parents towards the science lesson. According to the average of the attitude scores, it was discovered that the attitudes of the parents towards the science lesson were at a good level. In addition, there was no relationship between the demographic structure of parents and their attitudes towards the science lesson.
