Abstract

Bu araştırmanın amacı İşte Mutluluk Ölçeğini (Singh ve Aggarwal, 2018) Türkçeye uyarlamak ve geçerlik ve güvenirliğini sağlamaktır. Çalışma, bir alışveriş merkezinde farklı mağazalarda çalışan 260 kişi üzerinde yapılmıştır. Doğrulayıcı faktör analizi sonucunda 12 maddeden ve dört alt boyuttan (içsel motivasyon, işten soğutan duygular, destekleyici örgütsel deneyimler ve destekleyici olmayan örgütsel deneyimler) oluşan modelin iyi uyum indekslerine sahip olduğu bulunmuştur (x²/df= 2.46, GFI= .93, CFI= .95, RMSEA= .07).  Ölçeğin iç tutarlılık güvenirlik katsayıları ölçeğin içsel motivasyon alt boyutu için α= .80, işten soğutan duygular alt boyutu için α= .75, destekleyici örgütsel deneyimler alt boyutu için α= .81, destekleyici olmayan örgütsel deneyimler alt boyutu için α= .82 olarak bulunmuştur. Ölçeğin düzeltilmiş madde toplam korelasyonları .49 ile .76 arasında sıralanmaktadır. Bu sonuçlar ölçeğin Türkçe formunun geçerli ve güvenilir bir ölçme aracı olduğunu göstermektedir.

VALIDITY AND RELIABILITY STUDY OF HAPPINESS AT WORK SCALE

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to adapt the Happiness at Work Scale (Singh & Aggarwal, 2018) to Turkish and to provide its validity and reliability. The study was conducted on 260 shopping centre workers. As a result of confirmatory factor analysis, it was found that the model consisting of 12 items and four sub-dimensions (intrinsic motivation, work repulsive feelings, supportive organizational experiences, and unsupportive organizational experiences) had good fit indices (x²/df= 2.46, GFI= .93, CFI= .95, RMSEA= .07). The internal consistency reliability coefficients of the scale were α = .80 for the intrinsic motivation sub-dimension of the scale, α = .75 for the sub-dimension of work-repulsive feelings, α = .81 for the supportive organizational experiences sub-dimension, and α= .82 for the sub-dimension of unsupportive organizational experiences. The corrected item-total correlations of the scale are listed between .49 and .76. According to these results, it can be stated that the Turkish form of the scale is a valid and reliable measurement tool.
