Tests are one of the most common evaluation methods used to assess student learning in the educational process. Therefore, it is important to examine the factors that can help students succeed in tests. The aim of this study is to examine the psychometric features of the Student Opinion Scale (SOS) developed by Wolf & Smith, revised by Sundre and Sundre & Finney in order to assess the universty student's the test-taking motivation on Turkish sample. The SOS consists of two subscales called “Importance” and “Effort” and 10 items. The Turkish form of the scale was applied to 300 students at the Faculty of Education. The studies of internal consistency, item and factor analysis and criterion cohesion validity were performed to examine the psychometric features of the scale. The values obtained from the internal consistency analyses of the scale were .72 for “Importance” subscale; .82 for “Effort” subscale and .74 in total, and it was shown that the scale has sufficient reliability levels. The results of analysis showed that the original two-factor structure of the scale is suitable for Turkish sample. So, it is thought that the scale is a valid and reliable tool to be used for determining the test motivation of the Turkish sample group.

Acimlayici faktor analizi ve dogrulayici faktor analizleri sonucunda orijinal olcekte oldugu gibi olcegin iki faktorlu yapiya sahip oldugu gorulmustur. Olcegin Turkce formu icin Cronbach alfa ic tutarlik katsayisi birinci alt boyut (Onem) icin .72, ikinci alt boyut (Caba) icin .82 olarak bulunmustur. Olcegin tamami icin Cronbach alfa ic tutarlik katsayisi ise .74 olarak bulunmustur. Yapilan analiz sonuclari, olcegin orijinal iki faktorlu yapisinin Turk orneklem icin uygun oldugunu gostermistir.
