Abstract

The purpose of this study was to develop a scale to measure help seeking preference towards friends, teachers, and family, and examine its reliability and validity. A questionnaire of the 39 items was completed by 372 junior high school students. As a result, each 13-item Help-seeking Preference Scale towards friends, teachers, and family was developed. Factor analysis yielded two subscales. Reliability was supported by the coefficient alpha (α=.86 to .92). Further, it was moderately valid for measuring help-seeking preference by calculating the Pearson's product moment correlation coefficient between help-seeking preference, stress responses and perceived social support (r=-.39 to -.23, r=.36 to .62).
