Abstract

The aim of this study was to examine the psychometric properties of the Turkish version of The Certainty About Mental States Questionnaire (CAMSQ). The study was conducted with 565 participants (392 women and 173 men) aged 18 and 65 from non-clinical Turkish-speaking adults. The participants were administered the Cognitive Empathy Scale of Affective and Cognitive Measure of Empathy Scale (ACME-COG), the Reflective Functioning Questionnaire (RFQ-6), and the Mentalization Scale (MentS). The concordance between the two-factor structure predicted in CAMSQ was examined with confirmatory factor analysis. The Turkish version also confirmed the analysis results, the number of items, and the two-factor structure (Self-Certainty and Other-Certainty) in the original form of the scale. There is a positive correlation between the sub-dimensions of CAMSQ and ACME-COG (0.502

Araştırma, Türkçe konuşan 18-65 yaş aralığındaki 565 (392 kadın ve 173 erkek) yetişkin katılımcıyla yürütülmüştür. Katılımcılara ZDBÖ, Duygusal ve Bilişsel Empati Ölçeği Bilişsel Empati alt boyutu (ACME-COG) Yansıtıcı İşleyiş Ölçeği (RFQ-6) ve Zihinselleştirme Ölçeği (MentS) uygulanmıştır. ZDBÖ’nün faktör yapısının incelenmesi amacı ile Doğrulayıcı Faktör Analizi yürütülmüştür. Analiz sonuçları, ölçeğin orijinal formundaki madde sayısı ve iki faktörlü yapı (Öz-Belirleme ve Diğerini-Belirleme) Türkçe versiyonunda da doğrulanmıştır. ZDBÖ’nün alt boyutları ile ACME-COG arasında pozitif yönde, orta düzeyde (0.502
