The aim of this study is to create an environmental attitude scale. The Environmental Attitude Scale (EAS) was prepared with 24 items. The prepared EAS consists items with likert type. The sample of the study consists of 239 university students studying at Faculty of Education and, Faculty of Arts and Sciences. Principal axis factoring with orthogonal rotation (varimax) was used for exploratory factor analysis. Four items did not serve the purpose of the scale, so they were omitted from the created scale. Factor analysis was reconducted with same procedure is and one factor emerged with 20 items along with Cronbach’s alpha =.971 Finalized EAS consists of nine (9) reverse coded items. A confirmatory factor analysis is applied with a different sample (N=132). After covariating the error terms model was approved by confirmatory factor analysis.
