In this study character and values as global citizens assessment (CVGCA) questionnaire was translated and adapted into Turkish. A total of 241 junior and senior pre-service science teachers enrolled in the Department of Elementary Science Education of three different universities constituted the sample of the study. The CVGCA questionnaire was originally developed by Lee et al., (2013) and consists of three phases, namely ecological worldview, social and moral compassion and socioscientific accountability, and included totally 20 items. The scale translation and adaptation were conducted in three phases: scale translation, language identification (with statistical application), and adaptation. Confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) did not support the factor model proposed by Lee at al., (2013). Thus exploratory factor analysis (EFA) was conducted to find out factor structure of the CVGCA questionnaire in Turkish context and resulted in four factor structures: sustainable development, empathetic concerns, moral and ethical sensitivity, and willingness to act. Following CFA analysis confirmed the four factor structure found in EFA analysis.
