Popis: This study aimed to examine measurement invariance of the Career Anxiety Scale developed by Çetin-Gündüz and Nalbantoğlu-Yılmaz (2016). For this purpose, multigroup confirmatory factor analysis was performed to test measurement invariance by gender and grade level. The study group consisted of 415 students studying in the 11th and 12th grades in Nevşehir city center. Within the framework of the study model, configural, metric, scalar, and strict invariance were examined using fit coefficients. The analysis results proved the measurement invariance of the Career Anxiety Scale for both genders. It was also observed that configural, metric, scalar, and strict invariance were established for the 11th and 12th-grade students.
