Abstract

The purpose of the current study was to adapt the Three-Dimensional Contribution Scale (3D CON) to Turk-ish. The participants ranged in age from 14 to 19 (x̄= 15.81, ss=1.265). Construct validity of the scale was en-sured through confirmatory factor analysis; 5D Adolescent Well-being Scale was employed for fit validity. Reliability analysis was performed through internal consistency Cronbach Alpha and test-retest method. The analyses pro-duced acceptable fit indices and thus the 3-component structure of the scale was confirmed. In addition, correla-tion analysis results also confirmed that the scale had fit validity. The results showed that the 3D Contribution Scale was a reliable and a valid scale.

Üç Boyutlu Katkı Ölçeğinin Türkçe ’ye Uyarlanması: Geçerlik ve Güvenirlik Çalışması

Abstract

Bu çalışmanın amacı, üç boyutlu katkı ölçeğini Türk-çe’ye uyarlama, geçerlik ve güvenirlik analizlerini yapmak-tır. Çalışma grubu ortaöğretim öğrencilerinden 14-19 yaş arası katılımcılardan oluşmaktadır (x̄= 15.81, ss=1.265). Ölçeğin yapı geçerliliği doğrulayıcı faktör analizi ile ince-lenmiştir. Üç boyutlu katkı ölçeğinin uyum geçerliliğini test edilmesinde ergenler için beş boyutlu iyi oluş modeli ölçeği kullanılmıştır. Ölçeğin güvenirlik analizi, iç tutarlılık Cron-bach alfa katsayısı ve test tekrar yöntemleri ile yapılmıştır. Doğrulayıcı faktör analizi sonunda kabul edilebilir sınırlar-da uyum iyiliği değerlerine ulaşılmış ve üç boyutlu katkı ölçeğinin üç bileşenli yapısı doğrulanmıştır. Bunlarla birlik-te korelasyon analizlerinden elde edilen sonuçlar da ölçe-ğin uyum geçerliğini sağladığını ortaya koymaktadır. Araş-tırma bulguları üç boyutlu katkı ölçeğinin geçerli ve güveni-lir bir ölçme aracı olduğunu göstermektedir.
