摘要：This study investigates the factorial structures of the Turkish version of Pupils’ Attitude towards
Technology (PATT-TR). For the reliability and validity of PATT-TR data, hierarchical confirmatory factor
analysis was used on a sample of 3028 pupils. Original PATT-USA questionnaire includes four components: a)
open ended question about description of technology, b) demographic section, c) affective component, and d)
cognitive component. In this study only the affective component was taken into consideration. According to the
results, the factor structures of PATT-USA and PATT-TR show no correspondence; on the other hand PATT-TR
yields similar structures with PATT-SA (South Africa). In addition it was observed that the two sub-constructs
“technology & gender” and “personal prerequisites” didn’t predict the general attitude.
