摘要：AbstractThe aim of this study is to develop a scale stating teacher candidates’ anxiety towards the internet. In order to state the items in the scale, researchers formed an item-pool. In the process of stating the items for the item-pool, 106 teacher candidates from Ataturk Teacher Academy and Near East University were asked to write a composition with the topic “your thought about internet”. Researchers made content analysis in order to determine items for the anxiety scale. By taking the literature review into consideration researchers have formed 35 items. A total of 218 teacher candidates from Ataturk Teacher Academy and Near East University filled in the scale according to the instructions for evaluation. The coefficient scale is Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin (KMO) 0.84 where the Barlett Test revealed it being significant (Chi-square=3072.951, p=0.00). By using Direct Oblimin rotation method as a result of the principle component analysis, 24 items were removed from the scale as items were either not suitable or is loaded on more than 1 factor. The remaining 32 items where it's self-value was larger than 1 were divergence into 3 factors. It was observed that the common variances of the 3 factors change between 0.65 and 0.27. It was explained that the relationship variances were 43.1%. After the direct rotation, the factors formed have been named as follows; “Security Anxiety” (n=15; Alpha=0.88), “Anxiety of using internet and following the latest trend” (n=9; Alpha=0, 81), “Anxiety of internet addiction” (n=8; Alpha=0.84).For the whole scale, the Cronbach's Alpha was calculated as 0.89.
