Abstract

Bu çalışma, bireylerin iş ve aile yaşantılarındaki uyumsuz rollerinden kaynaklı yaşadıkları duyguların yoğunluğunu ölçme amacıyla McElwain (2008) tarafından geliştirilen İş-Aile Suçluluğu Ölçeği’nin Türkçe’ye uyarlanmasını ve psikometrik özelliklerinin incelenmesini içermektedir. Birinci çalışmada faktör analizi ve güvenirlik analizleri için 235 kadın ve 195 erkek olmak üzere toplamda 430 kişi (%9.1 özel sektör; %89.3 kamu sektörü ve %1.6 kendi işi) araştırma sürecine dâhil edilmiştir. İkinci çalışmada ise doğrulayıcı faktör analizi ve ölçüt geçerliliğinin test edilmesi amacıyla 133 kadın ve 85 erkek olmak üzere toplamda 218 kişi (%14.2 özel sektör; %84.4 kamu sektörü ve %1.4 kendi işi) ile veriler analiz edilmiştir. Ölçüt geçerliliği için İş-Aile Çatışması Ölçeği kullanılmıştır. Yapılan analizler sonucunda İASÖ-TR formunun orijinal ölçekte olduğu gibi suçluluğun yönünü belirleyen iş-aile suçluluğu ve aile-iş suçluluğu şeklinde iki temel boyuta sahip olduğu görülmektedir. Her bir alt boyutun da fiziksel, duygusal ve psikolojik suçluluğun türünü tanımlayan üç alt faktörden oluştuğu bulgulanmıştır. Dolayısıyla İASÖ-TR formu, beyaz yakalı çalışanların yaşayabilecekleri suçluluk duygusunu tanımlayabilmeleri açısından alan yazına katkı sunmaktadır.

Adaptation of Work-Family Guilt Scale into Turkish: Validity and Reliability Study

Abstract

This study aims to adapt the Work-Family Guilt Scale, developed by McElwain (2008), into Turkish and examine its psychometric properties. In the first study, 430 participants (9.1% private sector; 89.3% public sector and 1.6% self-employed), including 235 women and 195 men, were involved in the factor analysis and reliability testing. In the second study, to test confirmatory factor analysis and criterion validity, data were analyzed with a total of 218 participants (%14.2 private sector; %84.4 public sector and %1.4 self-employed), 133 women and 85 men. Work-Family Conflict Scale was used for criterion validity. As a result of the analyses, it is seen that the WFGS-TR form has two main dimensions, work-family guilt and family-work guilt, which determine the direction of guilt as in the original scale. Each sub-dimension consisted of three sub-factors defining the physical, emotional and psychological guilt. This adaptation contributes to the literature determining the guilt that white-collar employees may experience at work
