Buradan hareketle deprem deneyimlemiş ergenlerin sonrası ruh sağlığı sorunları yaşamalarında ve sorunların kronikleşmesinde bilişlerinin önemli rolü olduğu söylenebilir. Bu çalışmanın temel amacı, olan bilişlerini değerlendirmeye dönük olarak geçerli güvenilir ölçümler yapan ölçme aracı geliştirmektir. Çalışma 854 lise öğrencisinin (Erkek = 337, %39,5; Kadın 517, %60,5) katılımıyla gerçekleştirilmiştir. Ölçeğin geçerlik değerlendirmeleri için uzman görüşü, açımlayıcı doğrulayıcı faktör analizleri, ölçüt geçerliliği, yakınsak geçerlilik ayırt edici analizleri yapılmıştır. Yapılan tüm ölçümleri neticesinde ölçeğin 16 maddeli 4 faktörlü yapısının bahsi geçen kriterlerini sağladığı tespit edilmiştir. Güvenirlik ise kompozit güvenirlik değerleri, iç tutarlılık katsayıları test-tekrar test korelasyonları incelenmiştir. ölçümlerinin de görülmüştür.
