摘要:In this study, the aim was to develop the scale called “Scale for Attitude Towards Graduate Studies” which will determine undergraduate students’ attitude towards graduate studies. The scale was applied to 200 pre-service secondary school teachers who are enrolled at the Department of Secondary School Science and Mathematics Education at a state university in Ankara during the Spring semester at 2014-2015 academic year. In the analysis of the scale, which consists of 27 items of 5 likert-type, exploratory factor analysis (EFA) was used. As a result of the analyses, KMO value of the scale, which has four factors as “Interest and Importance, Fear and Anxiety, Lack of Need, Desire and Want,” was found to be 0,934. Reliability coefficient of the scale is 0,950 and total variance explained by the final scale is 60,315%. The result of the analyses show that the designed scale is a reliable and valid data gathering tool in determining secondary education pre-service teachers’ attitude towards graduate studies.
