- Abstract
Objective: Temperament assesment is an important determinant for child behaviour research and consulting the family. Temperament could be assesed by family interview, observing the child and using temperament scales. In this respect, we implemented reliability study and validity prestudy of Turkish version of Child Behaviour List Short Form by Rothbart. Method: Temperament scale, translated into Turkish and consulted to the experts, is filled twice within a week's interval by the mothers of 87 children aged between 3 and 7. Sample included children from three different socioeconomic regions. Results: The original form of Children Behavior Checklist was created by Rothbart and collegues in 1994. It was composed of 195 items. In 2000 the short and very short form were developed by Rothbart and collegues. Checklists have 15 dimensions of temperament, and the short form have 94 items. Analysis aiming the reliaibility of the test showed that the subscales of the Turkish Form have consistent corrrelation figures as the English Form and all the subscales are reliable. The reliability coefficient is 0,78. Because there is no comparable temperament questionnaire in Turkish for this age group and there is no validity values for the original questionnaire, we applied experimental validity method for validity prestudy. Conclusion: According to our findings of test-retest relations, internal consistency, reliability and validity analysis, and the literature we consider that Child Behaviour List Short Form is useful to asses the temperament characteristics of Turkish children.
