Özet
The practice and measurement of multicultural counseling competencies have become key issues in the counseling field in recent years. The present study examines the psychometric properties of the California Brief Multicultural Competence Scale (CBMCS) with Turkish counselors and counselor candidates based on the participation of 284 individuals (Mage = 26.10, SD = 6.92, 76.4% female). Confirmatory factor analyses were performed to test the structural validity of the CBMCS. The four-factor structure of the CBMCS was confirmed in the Turkish context (RMSEA =.039, CFI =.979, TLI =.976). The instrument can be used for various purposes such as the measurement of multicultural competencies, the influence of education and training, and cross-cultural research.
