In the present study, reliability and validity of Maternal Sensitivity Scale (MSS) which is based on the items of Maternal Behavior Q-Sort (MBQS; Pederson ve Moran, 1995; Sümer, Sayıl, & Berument, 2016) were evaluated. A 29-item observational scale of mother-child interactions was constructed on the basis of MBQS. One hundred and twenty mother-child (18-36 months of age) dyads participated in the study. Data were collected through semi-structured home visits (lasting around 45 minutes), and each home visit was video-taped and coded later. Based on the results of factor analysis, two items were dropped from the scale and 3-factor structure (support/encouragement, responsiveness, and warmth) was obtained. Internal consistency of the whole questionnaire was found as .92, whereas internal consistencies of sub-factors ranged between .78 and .91. On the other hand, concurrent validity of MSS was evaluated by examining its association with MBQS scores based on 30 videotapes. The significant correlation between these two measures was .67, demonstrating the scale’s concurrent validity. Besides, criterion validity of MSS was tested by examining the correlation of maternal sensitivity scores with children’s secure attachment and mothers’ education level. These correlations were significant (.42 for secure attachment and .44 for maternal education), indicating criterion validity of MSS. Therefore, it can be stated that Maternal Sensitivity Scale is a reliable and valid instrument that can be used by researchers.

The Effect of maternal parentification history, maternal attachment styles, socioeconomic status and children’s self-construals on parentification roles and perceived parental caregiving Karagöbek, Ayşe Büşra; Şahin Acar, Başak; Department of Psychology (2014) This thesis study aimed to explore how well the maternal history of parentification, adult attachment styles, self-construal of children and SES of the family contribute to explain the variability on parentification behaviors of children. The sample comprised 92 mother-child dyads. Mothers’ mean age was 40.11 (SD = 5.56), and mean education level of 2.45 (SD = 1.25). Children’s mean age was 12.56 (SD = .63). Mothers were given the Filial Responsibility Scale- Adult Version (Jurkovic, Thirkield, and Morrell,...
The Effect of maternal gatekeeping on shared past conversations through father involvement Çoban, İlknur; Şahin Acar, Başak; Department of Psychology (2017) The current study explored the relationship between maternal gatekeeping behavior and the characteristics of father-child memory conversations through the mediator role of father involvement. Father-child dyads reminisced about a shared past event, and both fathers’ and children’s level of elaborativeness in conversing about the shared past event was coded. Mothers filled out mother involvement and maternal gatekeeping scales, while fathers filled out father involvement and perceived maternal gatekeeping sc...
Mothers’ perceived partner responsiveness indirecty predict implicit infant attitude through implicit partner attitude Yalçıntaş, Sümeyra; Selçuk, Emre; Department of Psychology (2017) The study is first to examine determinants of maternal implicit attitude. Based on the important role of perceived partner responsiveness on close-relationships and attachment theory, we suggested perceived partner responsiveness as the predictor of maternal implicit attitude. We expected that partner responsiveness to be associated with maternal implicit attitude through implicit partner attitude, maternal depression and distress. Importantly, we tested our hypothesis also for maternal explicit attitude to...
