These guidelines aim to raise awareness, guide learning, and support the use of culturally sensitive terms and phrases that center the voices and perspectives of those who are often marginalized or stereotyped.
Objective: The present study is aimed to examine psychometrical properties of the Parents Beliefs about Childrens Emotions Questionnaire (PBACE), which is an important part of parental emotion socialization and closely related to children mental health, for Turkish parents and to detect measurement invariance according to parent gender Methods: three hundred and fifty mothers and 350 fathers who have children between the age of 4-10 participated in this study in Aksaray city center. The PBACE is a Likert type scale and consisting of 33 items. For its Turkish adaptation, translation and back-translation were completed, and then submitted to experts for content, semantic and conceptual equivalance. Confirmatory Factor analysis (CFA) was performed for examining construct validity. Parents of gender-based measurement invariance structure were analyzed by calculating the configural, metric and scalar invariance. An evaluation of the reliability of the scale was made using, internal consistency (Cronbach's alpha) coefficients, test-retest correlation methods and item-total correlation. Results: The validity of the data obtained from the measurement tool in the study were analyzed by examining the results of CFA. CFA results indicated that the questionnaire has a structure of seven factors and data model compliance was found to be within acceptable values. Internal consistency coefficients, test-retest values and item total correlations were examined and it was found that PBACE is a reliable measuring instrument. For parent gender measurement invariance fit indexes (Chi square, RMSEA, SRMR, CF, TLI) in gradually obtained models was examined whether the range is acceptable. When examining structural analysis results for two different gender level, it was seen that metric and scalar invariance is achieved. Discussion: Parents can use Turkish version of PBCAE for evaluating children's positive and negative emotions and parents and the questionnaire can also be used in studies examining clinical, developmental and family systems.
