Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) chatbots can make positive contributions to
education processes thanks to their advanced natural language processing
capabilities. This is a new technology, and it is important to know its proper
use. GenAI literature students have more potential to use chatbots effectively.
In the literature, there are a limited number of measurement tools to measure
the literacy level of AI chatbots, which are in the productive artificial
intelligence category. The aim of this study is to adapt an instrument to
measure the GenAI literacy of university students. The AI literacy scale developed by [1] was
adapted into Turkish with the participation of 297 undergraduate and graduate
university students. The scale consists of four dimensions and ten items. The
Cronbach's alpha internal consistency coefficient for the four dimensions was
calculated to be 0.74. The total test scores showed a significant difference
between the upper and lower 27% groups. The fit indices were examined to
demonstrate the adequacy of the model, and it provides a good foundation to
build upon. With this structure, the instrument can be used as a suitable tool
to measure the level of GenAI literacy, the effectiveness of learning
activities to improve this level, and to conduct research on this topic.
