The data of the research were collected with the help of “green chemistry awareness” and “green chemistry behaviour” scales. Each of the scale is comprised of 13 items, and was prepared as 5 likert type. While Cronbach alpha internal consistency coefficient of green chemistry awareness scale was 0.76, Cronbach alpha internal consistency coefficient of green chemistry behaviour scale was found as 0.72.
