Artificial Intelligence Attitude Scale

The aim of this study is to develop a reliable and valid scale to determine individuals' attitudes toward artificial intelligence. The study was conducted during the spring semester of 2024 with the participation of pre-service teachers studying at the Faculty of Education at Muğla Sıtkı Koçman University in Turkey. A total of 410 preservice teachers participated in the exploratory factor analysis, and 201 pre-service teachers participated in the confirmatory factor analysis. The scale was found to have a three-factor structure consisting of 13 items. The reliability test results indicated that the scale is reliable both at the overall scale level and within its subdimensions. The confirmatory factor analysis also demonstrated that the goodness-of-fit indices were at an acceptable level. The scale consists of three subdimensions: "Benefits of Artificial Intelligence," "Risks of Artificial Intelligence," and "Use of Artificial Intelligence." The scale explains 53.86% of the variance.
