摘要：In this study, it was aimed to translate middle school student version of School Climate Survey developed by Emmons, Haynes, and Comer (2002) into Turkish and to conduct validity and reliability studies on middle school students. The adaptation study of the scale was conducted with two separate participant groups. The first group was consisted of 314 (44.4% boy and 55.6% girl) middle school students while the second group included 348 (57.8% boy and 42.2% girl) middle school students. The findings of confirmatory factor analyses indicated that the Turkish form of the scale was composed of 36 items and six sub-dimensions (fairness, order and discipline, parent involvement, sharing of resources, student interpersonal relations, and student-teacher relations). The scale had also evidence for its convergent and discriminant validity. The internal consistency values and test-retest reliability results with a two-week interval for the overall scale and sub- dimensions were also at acceptable levels.
