Abstract

Bu çalışmanın amacı, seçmenlerin siyasal sisteme karşı duyarlı hale getiren ve seçim sürecine aktif katılımlarını teşvik eden faktörleri içeren Politik Duyarlılık Ölçeğinin (PDÖ) Türkçeye Uyarlama çalışması yapmaktır. Bu kapsamda Kirmani vd. (2020) tarafından geliştirilen ve 5 alt faktörden oluşan Political Sensitivity Measurement (PSM) ölçeği kullanılmış, geçerlik, güvenirlik çalışması yapılarak Türkçe diline uyarlaması hedeflenmiştir. Verilerin toplanması amacıyla orantılı tabakalı örnekleme yöntemi kullanılmıştır. Bu bağlamda sosyo-ekonomik düzeyleri birbirinden farklı olan ve Küçükçekmece ilçesinde yer alan 21 mahalle birer tabaka olarak kabul edilecek ve bu tabakalardan nüfuslarına oranla gönüllülük esası baz alınarak basit seçkisiz örnekleme yolu ile katılımcı seçimi yapılmıştır. Elde edilen sonuçlar, Politik Duyarlık Ölçeği'nin Türkçe versiyonunun geçerli ve güvenilir bir ölçüm aracı olduğunu göstermektedir. Doğrulayıcı faktör analizi, ölçeğin beş alt faktörlü yapısının verilerle uyumlu olduğunu doğrulamıştır.

Adaptation study of the political sensitivity scale (PSS) into Turkish

Abstract

The aim of this study is to adapt the Political Sensitivity Scale (PSS), which makes voters more sensitive to the political system and encourages active participation in the electoral process, into Turkish. In this context, the Political Sensitivity Measurement (PSM) scale, developed by Kirmani et al. (2020) and consisting of 5 sub-factors, was utilized, and its adaptation to the Turkish language was targeted through validity and reliability studies. Proportional stratified sampling method was used for the collection of data. In this regard, 21 neighborhoods in Küçükçekmece district, each representing a stratum with different socio-economic levels, were considered, and participants were selected through simple random sampling based on volunteerism from these strata in proportion to their populations. The obtained results indicate that the Turkish version of the Political Sensitivity Scale is a valid and reliable measurement tool. Confirmatory factor analysis has confirmed that the scale's five-factor structure is consistent with the data.
