The aim of this study is to develop a scale that measures the attitudes of physical education and
sports teachers towards measurement and evaluation. In this study, scale development principles
and steps of DeVellis (2017) were used. Initially, a literature review was conducted, 19 physical
education and sports teachers were interviewed in written form and focus group discussion were
held with 7 teachers. Certain statements were converted into a format that can be used in the scale
form and an item-pool of 73 items was created including positive and negative items. Expert
opinions were taken for the draft items, corrections were made in the item pool in line with these
expert opinions, and the initial form the scale was created including 58 items. This draft scale was
applied to 50 physical education and sports teachers. As a result of the pilot implementation, the
scale was put into its final draft form with a total of 58 items, 17 of which were negative. As the
conclusion of the reliability and validity tests applied to the Measurement and Evaluation Attitude
Scale for Physical Education and Sports Teachers, 34 items were removed from the draft scale and
the final form of the scale included 4 factors and 24 items with a variance value of 46.545. The
Cronbach Alpha reliability coefficient of the scale was calculated as 0.85.
