Adaptation of compulsive sport consumption scale into Turkish culture: CSCS-T

Abstract

Consuming sports products and services incessantly without being able to restrain oneself is characterized as compulsive sports consumption. The aim of this study is to adapt the Compulsive Sport Consumption Scale (CSCS) developed in English by Aiken et al. (2018) into Turkish utilizing a scientific scale adaptation process. The CSCS consists of six items and is graded on a seven-point Likert scale ranging from strongly disagree to strongly agree. Higher CSCS levels are affiliated with psychological and behavioral constructs related to the effects of sports consumption, such as time, money, coping, and psychological and behavioral neglect. The scale has been tailored via a group of English and Turkish linguists, sports scientist, and psychometrist. Parallel analysis has been performed on account of inspecting the dimensionality of the scale, and many statistics such as unidimensional congruence, explained common variance, mean of item residual absolute loadings, and robust fit statistics have been used. In accordance with parallel analysis, the scale was unidimensional, and all other statistics supported that as well. The unidimensional adapted scale (CSCS-T) explained approximately 83% of the total variance. Additionally, internal consistency, composite reliability, and test-retest reliability have been examined to determine the measurement's reliability. Cronbach's Alpha was .958, McDonald's Omega was .958, and Pearson's product-moment correlation coefficient was .923 in the wake of the test-retest application. All of the findings propound that when investigating compulsive over-participation in sports consumption in Turkish-speaking populations, the CSCS-T can be used to acquire valid and reliable measures.
