Abstract

The aim of this study is to develop a scale enabling the determination and evaluation of the learning habits of mind displayed by music teacher candidates in the individual instrument education course. The scale form which was created for this purpose was presented to 10 experts who have a PhD degree in music education. As a result of the feedback from the experts, the scale form was shaped. The 41-item trial form was applied to 241 music teacher candidates who received music teacher training in 3 universities in the first stage of the scale development, and 223 music teacher candidates who received the same training in 3 universities in the second stage. A total of 464 people were reached. By analyzing the data obtained, a final scale form having 7 dimensions, and 27 items was reached. Cronbach's alpha reliability coefficients were found to be 0.897 and 0.906 for Exploratory Factor Analysis (AFA) and For Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA), respectively.
