A SCALE STUDY FOR THE DETERMINATION OF HEALTH KNOWLEDGE AND SKILLS OF PRIMARY SCHOOL STUDENTS

In this study, a reliable and valid likert-scale model was aimed to develop for determining the health knowledgeand skills of 4th grade primary school students. For this purpose, after reviewing the relavant literature and created a draft 32-item scale, first, this draft was applied to 51-primary sc...
