Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Domestic Violence Awareness Scale
The scale developed by Özyürek and Kurnaz (2019) consists of 20 items measuring awareness of domestic violence on a three-point Likert scale. The highest score that can be obtained from each item is three, and the lowest score is one. Items 1-5 in the scale constitute the sub-dimensions of "Definition of Domestic Violence", items 6-10 constitute the sub-dimensions of "Consequences of Domestic Violence", items 11-15 constitute the sub-dimensions of "Acceptance of Domestic Violence", and items 16-20 constitute the sub-dimensions of "Normalization of Domestic Violence". High total scores obtained from the entire scale can be interpreted as the individual having views compatible with the expected behaviors and attitudes in scientific and legal fields in interpreting domestic violence and having a high level of awareness of domestic violence.
