Abstract
This study aimed to develop a scale to measure time orientation of primary school students
during classroom disengagement. Participants were a total of 369 primary school children, 179 female and 190
male students aged between 10-14. Exploratory and confirmatory factor analysises and certain reliability
analyses were used in the study. The findings revealed a six-dimensional scale, 60.75 % of whose variance was
explained. The dimensions of the scale were to display behavior at present, to think about past problems,
to think about meeting future needs, to think about past hedonic experience, to think about developmental
task whether or not to achieve, and to lose control. The reliability and validity values of the scale were
found to be satisfactory. The scale that resulted was given the title Scale for Primary School Children Time
Orientation during Classroom Disengagement. This instrument may be used in various studies in the future,
thus contributing to the development of the field
Key words: primary school children, classroom, disengagement, time orientation, scale.
