Cigerci, Fatih Mehmet, Veyis, Fatih, Cimen, Fatmanur

Abstract

This study aims to develop a valid and reliable scale to measure teachers' self-efficacy perception towards the use of artificial intelligence (AI) in foreign language teaching. In the study, the scale development process started with a literature review and a draft of 39 items was created in line with expert opinions. As a result of pilot application and validity and reliability analyses, a final scale with 18 items was obtained. Exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses showed that the scale had a twodimensional structure (Planning and Instruction and Measurement and Evaluation). According to the EFA results, the scale explained 76.75% of the total variance. Factor loadings ranged between .585 and 1.007 and item-total correlations were between .639 and .879, indicating that the scale items had sufficient discrimination. As a result of all these procedures, a valid and reliable scale was developed to measure the perception of competence in using artificial intelligence in foreign language teaching.
