Abstract

Bu çalışmanın amacı “Çocukluk Dönemi Yürütücü İşlevler Envanteri (ÇDYİE)” Ebeveyn Formu’nun okul öncesi yaş grubu için Türkçe’ye uyarlanmasıdır. 4-12 yaş aralığındaki çocukların yürütücü işlevlerini ebeveynler tarafından değerlendiren ÇDYİE bir derecelendirme aracıdır. Araştırmanın çalışma grubu, 2019-2020 eğitim öğretim yılında 37 okul öncesi eğitim kurumuna devam etmekte olan 48-72 ay grubundaki 212 çocuğun ebeveynlerinden oluşmaktadır. Araştırmada veri toplama aracı olarak ÇDYİE ebeveyn formu, Çocuk Davranış Listesi-Kısa Formu (ÇDL-KF) ve Demografik Bilgi Formu kullanılmıştır. Doğrulayıcı Faktör Analizi sonuçları ÇDYİ’nin işleyen bellek ve ketleyici kontrol olmak üzere iki faktörlü yapısının orijinal yapısı ile örtüştüğü bulunmuştur; χ2(250) = 383,275, CFI=0.90, RMSEA=0.05 [90% CI 04, 06], SRMR=0.05. Ölçek maddelerinin üst ve alt %27’lik grupları arasında yapılan bağımsız t-testi sonuçlarına göre tüm maddeler gruplar arasında anlamlı düzeyde farklılık göstermiştir. Ölçeğin iç tutarlık (Cronbach’s alpha) değerleri işleyen bellek alt boyutu için ,90 ve ketleyici kontrol alt boyutu için ,78 olarak bulunmuştur. Güvenirlik değerleri, Kompozit Güvenirlik değerleri için de geçerlidir. Kriter geçerliğinde ÇDYİE ve ÇDL-KF alt boyutları arasında anlamlı düzeyde korelasyon bulunmuştur. Bulgular, ÇDYİE’nin Türk okul öncesi dönem çocuklarının ebeveynleri ile kullanılabilir olduğunu göstermektedir.

Validity and Reliability Study of Parent Report of the Childhood Executive Functioning Inventory for Preschoolers

Year 2021, Volume: 17 Issue: 2, 1 - 10, 30.12.2021
https://doi.org/10.17244/eku.884918

Abstract

The present study aims to adapt the parent-report of the "Childhood Executive Functioning Inventory (CHEXI)" into Turkish to use with preschool children. The CHEXI is a rating instrument by which parents evaluate the executive functioning of children between ages of 4 and12 years. The sample of the present study consists of parents of 212 children attending 37 public preschools during 2019 – 2020 academic year. Children’s ages range from 48 to 72 months. Parents completed the CHEXI, Children's Behavior Questionnaire-Short Form (CBQ-SF), and Demographic Information Form. Results from the Confirmatory Factor Analysis showed that the CHEXI has two factors aligned with the original structure; χ2(250) = 383,275, CFI=0.90, RMSEA=0.05 [90% CI 04, 06], SRMR=0.05. These dimensions are Working Memory and Inhibitory Control. As a result of the item-level independent t-test conducted for the upper and lower 27% groups, all items were significantly different between groups. The internal reliability (Cronbach's Alpha) values of the inventory were found to be .90 for the Working Memory and .78 for the Inhibitory Control subscale. This was also true for composite reliability. In addition, there was a significant correlation between CHEXI and CBQ-SF's subscales, indicating criterion validity. The findings of the present study suggest that CHEXI could be used with parents of preschool children in Turkey.
