Abstract

In this study, information was given about the adaptation studies of the "Incomplete Stories with Doll Family Scale" which was developed for determining attachment at the age of six in terms of social and emotional development. 60 students from preschool departments of primary schools in Mus Province participated in the study. As a result of exploratory factor analysis, the variance of one factor was computed as 55.92%. Confirmatory factor analysis results confirmed that tested data fit well with the data. Cronbach alpha coefficient (.83) and Spearman Brown split-half correlation (.83) were computed. As a result of these analyses, it is concluded that the scale is accepted to be reliable, valid, and suitable for Turkish children.
