Özet:

This study, developed by Fraser (1983) aims to adapt the Class Climate Scale Short Form to the Turkish culture and to study the psychometric characteristics of the scale. The study was conducted on a study group consisting of 364 high school students (6-7-8 classes). The verifying factor analysis has been applied to reveal the structure validity of the measurement. The verifying factor analysis results showed that the six-factor structure in the original form of the scale was verified in the Turkish sample. The reliability of the measure is calculated by the combined reliability ratio. Compound reliability ratings calculated for scale, .62, for the participation subscale, .63, for the relationship subscale, .67, for the teacher support, .55, for the task direction, and for the organization. 75 and the Rules of Explanation were found as .73 for the lower scale.  As a result of the article analysis, the corrected material total correlations were determined to be ranged between .41 and .50 for the participation sub-scale, between .45 and .57 for the Relationship sub-scale, between .39 and .45 for the Teacher Support sub-scale, between .27 and .43 for the task orientation sub-scale, between .40 and .52 for the Organization sub-scale, and between .24 and .45 for the Rules of Clarity for the sub-scale, and the differences between the average of the sub-top groups of 27% were significant for all the materials in the scale.
