DEVELOPING THE ALTRUISTIC FEAR OF CRIME SCALE: RELIABILITY AND VALIDITY STUDY

In this study, it is aimed to develop a measurement tool that can be used to evaluate the altruistic fear of crime of mothers toward their children. For the validity and cross validation of the scale, exploratory factor analysis (EFA) was performed in two separate study groups consisting of 195 and...
