This study aims to analyze the reliability and validity of the Child Sexual Abuse Myth Scale (CSAMS) in Turkish society. This methodological and cross-sectional study was conducted with 334 individuals between the ages 19 to 65. Data were collected through the Personal Information Form and the Child Sexual Abuse Myth Scale. Content Validity Ratio values of the scale items in the study ranged between 0.500 and 1.00, and the Content Validity Index was found to be 0.68. Exploratory Factor Analysis was appropriate based on Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin Measure of Sampling Adequacy (KMO = 0.809) and Barlett's Test of Sphericity (X2 = 1269, p < 0.001). Factor Analysis resulted in 4 sub-scales (Accusation, Causality, Normalization, and Sexist Approach). Item factor loads of the scale were found to range between 0.501 and 0.839, and the total explained variance was 59.4 %. Pearson correlation coefficients of all the items ranged between 0.32 and 0.60, and Cronbach's alpha coefficient was 0.81. Accusation, Normalization, and Sexist Approach sub-scale scores were found to increase with age. Sub-scale scores were found to demonstrate significant differences by gender, marital status, education level, working or not, income level, family type, number of siblings, and number of children (p < 0.05). The findings of this study show that the CSAMS is valid and reliable for Turkish culture in its 14-item and 4 sub-scale form.
本研究旨在分析儿童性虐待神话量表（CSAMS）在土耳其社会中的信度和效度。这是一项方法论和横断面研究，共纳入了 19 至 65 岁的 334 名个体。通过个人信息表和儿童性虐待神话量表收集数据。研究中量表项目的内容效度比值范围在 0.500 至 1.00 之间，内容效度指数为 0.68。基于 Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin 样本充分性度量（KMO=0.809）和 Bartlett 球形检验（X2=1269，p<0.001），探索性因子分析是合适的。因子分析产生了 4 个亚量表（指责、因果关系、正常化和性别歧视方法）。量表项目的因子负荷范围在 0.501 至 0.839 之间，总解释方差为 59.4%。所有项目的 Pearson 相关系数范围在 0.32 至 0.60 之间，Cronbach's alpha 系数为 0.81。指责、正常化和性别歧视方法亚量表的得分随年龄增长而增加。亚量表得分在性别、婚姻状况、教育程度、是否工作、收入水平、家庭类型、兄弟姐妹数量和子女数量方面存在显著差异（p<0.05）。本研究结果表明，CSAMS 在其 14 项和 4 个亚量表形式下对土耳其文化具有有效性和可靠性。
