Objective: In this study, it was
aimed to develop a scale for determining the consciousness of rational drug use
among individuals over the age of 18. Method:
A total of 402 individuals that is over 18 participated in this research. The
research data is obtained from the 5 point Likert type trial scale with 22
items. Descriptive statistics, exploratory factor analysis, confirmatory factor
analysis, independent groups t test were applied and Cronbach's alpha
coefficient was calculated. Results:
The exploratory factor analysis results showed that the scale had a single
factor structure and 3 component were composed of 15 items. This structure was
confirmed by confirmatory factor analysis. It has been found that Cronbach
alpha value of the scale is 0.83. Conclusison:
It is concluded that the scale is a reliable and a valid tool for measuring the
consciousness of the individulas rational drug use.
Amaç: Bu çalışmada 18 yaş üstü bireylerin akılcı
ilaç kullanımı konusundaki farkındalıklarını belirlemeye yönelik bir ölçek
geliştirmek amaçlanmıştır. Yöntem:
Çalışmaya 18 yaş üstü 402 birey katılmıştır. Çalışma kapsamında elde edilen
veriler 22 maddelik 5’li Likert tipinde bir ölçek deneme formu kullanılarak
elde edilmiştir. Elde edilen veriler üzerinden betimsel istatistikler, açımlayıcı
faktör analizi, doğrulayıcı faktör analizi, bağımsız gruplar t testi uygulanmış
ve Cronbach alfa katsayısı hesaplanmıştır. Bulgular: Açımlayıcı faktör analizi
sonuçları ölçeğin tek faktörlü 3 bileşenli bir yapı sergilediğini ve 15
maddeden oluştuğunu göstermiştir. Tek faktörlü üç bileşenli bu yapı doğrulayıcı
faktör analiziyle de doğrulanmıştır. Ölçeğin alfa güvenirliği 0.83 olarak
belirlenmiştir. Sonuç: Ölçeğin
akılcı ilaç kullamını farkındalığını ölçmeye yönelik güvenilir ve geçerli bir
ölçek olduğu sonucuna varılmıştır.
