Abstract

Background: The attitudes of children with normaldevelopment are effective in preventing negativeattitudes and discrimination towards children withdisabilities. So, it is important to use a validmeasurement tool in determining the attitudes oftheir peers towards children with disabilities.Purpose: The study aimed to evaluate the validityand reliability of the Turkish version of the ChedokeMcMaster Attitudes towards Children withHandicaps Scale.Materials and Methods: This is a methodologicalstudy. Three hundred and ninety-three primaryschool students constituted the sample of the study.The SPSS 22.0 and the Amos 22.0 programs wereused to analyze the data, and construct validity wastested using the Cronbach’s alpha, exploratory factoranalysis, confirmatory factor analysis, and Pearsoncorrelation analysis.Results: The Cronbach’s alpha was .89 for thewhole scale, .91 in the affective dimension, .71 in thebehavioral dimension and .68 in the cognitivedimension. The fit indices of the scale with 30 itemsand three factors were at an acceptable level byRMSEA .062; GFI .85; χ2/sd 2.701 (p= .000).Conclusions: It was determined that the ChedokeMcMaster Attitudes towards Children withHandicaps is a valid and reliable scale for theTurkish society.
