Sumario:It is an inevitable fact that, as a social being, the human is going to have a lifelong relationship with its baby. There are important effects of the social and emotional relationship that occurs naturally between mother and the baby if it occurs between father and the child especially when it develops with transactional elements. While this situation affects the baby's social, emotional, cognitive, language and motor skills development, it also affects the father's paternal attitudes positively. However, there is no scale that will show and evaluate the fathers' transactional attitudes in Turkey. So with the aim of understanding father and child interaction in terms of father-child transactional attitudes, this study makes some analyses on the validity and reliability of Caregiver-Child Affect, Responsiveness and Engagement Scale developed by Tamis-LeMonda, Shannon, Pinter, Acevedo, Baumwell ve Spellmann (2002) and adaptations in Turkish. It is studied with 85 father-baby couples. Firstly, language adaptation (equivalence) of B-ÇDYMÖ scale is prepared and then for the validity, item analyses are made with exploratory factor analyses. Reliability of the scale is analyzed with an internal consistency index (Cronbach Alpha). Results show that form of the father with 17 items and form of the baby with 14 items have grouped below the 2 subfactors while binary form with 3 items has grouped below the one sub-factor. Internal consistency index of the form of the father varies between .80 and .93 and conformity index of observers vary between the values of .72 and .95. Internal consistency index of the child form varies between .67 and .94, conformity index of observers varies between .74 and 1.000. It is concluded that internal consistency index of binary form is .84 and conformity index of observers varies between .72 and .82. Consequently, it is seen that Caregiver-Child Affect, Responsiveness and Engagement Scale is a valuable and reliable scale for the evaluation of father and child interaction attitudes in Turkey.
