Development of Perceived Physical Literacy Scale for All

Abstract

Purpose: The aim of this study is to develop a scale for the perception of physical literacy on individuals participating in local government recreation activities. Design/Methodology/Approach: In order to establish the construct validity of the scale, a model was first created through Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA) with the first sample group; Then, Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) was conducted with the data collected from the second sample group. Findings: In EFA, sample adequacy was found to be .924 (>.60) and Bartlett's test of sphericity was significant at the p <0.01 significance level. It is also seen that there are 3 factors with eigenvalues greater than 1, and the total variance they explain is 69.690%. A structure with a total of 19 items was obtained with a factor load value >.45. As a result of CFA, it is seen that the model is at a good level in all fit indices. Highlights: The obtained scale has been shown to be a reliable and valid scale in determining the physical literacy people perceive in themselves.
