Online Submission, International Journal of Education and Psychological Research (IJEPR) v7 n2 p56-59 Jun 2018
The purpose of this study was to examine the psychometric features as well as the correlates of Child and Adolescent Mindfulness Measure (CAMM) in Turkish adolescents. In total, 221 adolescents (125 female, 86 male) attended to the study. CFA analysis was used to examine the initially offered one factor structure of CAMM. So as to check the convergent and incremental validity, Mindful Attention Awareness Scale-Adolescent version (Brown, West, Loverich, & Biegel, 2011) Self-Compassion Scale (Neff, 2003) and Difficulties in Emotion Regulation Scale (Gratz & Roemer, 2004) were also utilized. The findings of CFA promoted the single factor CAMM in Turkish adolescents. In addition CAMM came out to have positive correlations to MAASA (r=0.56, p<0.01) and Self-Compassion Scale (r=0.35, p<0.01) while negative correlation to Difficulties in Emotion Regulation Scale (r=-0.52, p<0.01). Internal consistency indicator of Cronbach Alpha was also found as .80 for the whole scale.
