Abstract: This study aims to develop a valid and reliable measurement instrument to identify university students' attitudes towards flipped learning model. The research sample was composed of 487 pre-service teachers who attended a university. Relevant literature was reviewed a pool of items was formed and content and construct validity analyses as well as item reliability analysis were done in the process of developing the scale. The literature was reviewed, and the participants were reviewed to form the pool of items. A 35-item draft scale was prepared in the light of data coming from the literature review and from the interviews with the participants. Both the exploratory factor analysis (AFA) and the confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) were done so as to determine the factor structure of the scale of attitudes towards flipped learning model (SATFLM). Following the EFA, it was found that the Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin value was 0.936, that the Cronbach's Alpha coefficient was 0.910 and that the scale had 3 factors. Factor one explained 33.852% of the total variance while factor two explained 41.268% and factor three explained 47.856% of the total variance. The factor structure was confirmed with confirmatory factor analysis (CFA). According to the results of the CFA, the GFI was found as 0.911, CFI as 0.932, TLI as 0.924, RMSEA as 0.048 and X[superscript 2]/df as 2.12. It was concluded on the basis of the data that the scale was valid and reliable in identifying attitudes towards flipped learning.
