Özet
The purpose of this study was to develop and validate the Openness to Violation of
Ethical Decision (OVED) scale, which measures teachers’ openness to violation of their
own ethical decision under the influence of key constituencies at the school including
students, managers, colleagues and parents. In the development process, reviewing
the related literature, gathering expert opinions, conducting interviews with teachers
were respectively followed in the respective order. The resulting two level (high and
low moral intensity conditions) scale form was subjected to a pilot study with 176
teachers. Two separate exploratory factor analyses (EFA) on low and high moral
intensity dimensions of the scale suggested a robust four factor solutions explaining
more than70 percent of the variance on both parts. In order to verify the four factor
solution, a second study with 508 teachers was conducted. Because of violating the
normality assumption, Partial Least Square-Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM)
was conducted. At first, the reliability of the scale was checked by Cronbach’s alpha
and Composite Reliability values. Cronbach’s alpha values were higher than .88 and
Composite Reliability values were all higher than .90 for each of the four factors,
indicating high reliability. Finally, the results of PLS-SEM values on convergent and
discriminant validity revealed high levels of convergent validity and discriminant
validity scores for both parts of the scale, which affirmed the validity of the scale.
