Based on the data obtained, an exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis was conducted and the finalized 17-item scale comprised the subdimensions of code switchingin the learning-teaching process, code switching by frequency, code switching by reasons and code switchingin the family and social environment. The total variance explained by this scale was calculated as 49.393% and the internal consistency value was .77.

However, acquiring this quality entails multidimensional usages of languages. Individuals who have a relationship with two or more languages are able to translate from the other language(s) (usually from the native language) to the target language, whether they are communicatively advanced language users or users at the beginner level. The process of switching to better-known language units such as words, phrases or sentences is preferred in order to fill the gaps in use and manipulate the meaning in the desired way, which is called “code switching”.  \nCode switching is defined as “the simultaneous and alternatin","cbCaipWU2YQCwjKi","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaipWU2YQCwjKi","pdf",623842,13,"English","# Abstract\n# Keywords\n# Introduction\n## Bilingualism and code switching definitions\n## Types of code switching\n## Reasons for code switching","[{\"question\":\"What was the main goal of the study?\",\"answer\":\"To develop a scale that measures code switching beliefs of learners of Turkish as a foreign language (TFL).\"},{\"question\":\"How many items were in the pilot and final versions of the scale?\",\"answer\":\"The initial instrument had 38 items.
