description This study aims to reveal whether or not the ability to say “no”, whichis tried to be taught to students in the 2005 life studies curriculum, has beengained by children with regards to various situations. The survey model wasutilized in the study. The study was conducted with 4th gradestudents who took the class of life studies in primary school 1st, 2ndand 3rd grades and therefore are expected to have gained the abilityto say “no”. In order to collect data, The Ability to Say “No”-Specific CasesInventory (NSCI) developed by the researchers was employed. In order to be ableto evaluate the responses given to the cases in the NSCI, the “NSCI Rubric” wasdeveloped. The data obtained from NSCI were analyzed according to themany-facet Rasch analysis using the FACETS packet program. The findings suggest that students may beable to demonstrate the basic ability to say “no” expected of them in responseto specific cases; however they will not focus too much on the behavior ofmaking an explanation about the reason why they have said “no”, or, onperforming alternative behaviors after saying “no”.
