Özet
Aim: The research was conducted to adapt the Student-Advocates Pre- and Post-Scale into
Turkish.
Methods: The research was carried out as a methodological design. The population of the
study consists of students of a secondary school in Ankara aged from 10 to 11 years. The
sample consisted of 246 students who agreed to participate in the study and received consent from the family. Translation, expert opinion, confirmatory factor analysis, Cronbach
alpha reliability analysis, and item correlation analysis were performed during the adaptation process of the scale, which was developed in English to Turkish.
Results: This study determined that the X2
/SD fit index obtained from the confirmatory
factor analysis was 1.361 and that the root mean square error of approximation value was
0.038, the Goodness of Fit Index value was 0.96, Adjusted Goodness of Fit Index value was
0.94, and the Cronbach alpha coefficient was 0.86. Cronbach’s alpha of bullying behavior
dimension was 0.70, knowledge of stealing the show, turning it over, accompanying others, and coaching compassion strategies dimension was 0.72, and confidence intervening
dimension was 0.75.
Conclusion: The Turkish version of the scale was determined to be suitable to the validity
and reliability criteria. The scale can be used to determine whether children who may be
bystanders in peer bullying interfere in bullying. It is recommended that the scale could be
used by school health nurses in their interventions to prevent peer bullying.
