Abstract

Purpose: The aim of the present study is to investigate the reliability and validity of Unconditional Self Acceptance Scale that was developed within the Rational Emotive Behavior Therapies literature for Turkish university students. Method: Participants consisted of 229 students from eight departments of which 134 were female and 95 male. Also, the scale to determine the validity of distinctive, dysfunctional Attitudes Scale, AutonomySociothropy Scale, Brief Symptom Inventory were used. To determinate the reliabilty of scale, Cronbach’s Alpha coefficients and test re-test reliability, correlation coefficients of item-total were conducted. Findings: The Unconditional SelfAcceptance Questionnaire (USAQ) consists of two factors (conditional self-acceptance, unconditional self-acceptance). The factors can explain 36.77% of the variance. When we look at the discriminant validity, USAQ had significant and inverse correlations with sociotropy and Short Symptom Inventory. The reliability of the USAQ was calculated as alpha: 76 and the internal correlation among the items and total correlation varied between .40 to .72. Conclusion: As a result of analysis of research data, the questionnaire proved to be valid and reliable to be used in further studies for Turkish university students

Abstract

Amaç: Bu çalışma, Akılcı Duygusal Davranış Terapileri çerçevesinde geliştirilen Koşulsuz Kendini Kabulü Ölçeği’nin Türk üniversite öğrencileri için geçerliğini ve güvenirliğini saptamayı amaçlamaktadır. Yöntem: Araştırmanın katılımcıları, 134’i kız ve 95’i erkek olmak üzere 229 üniversite öğrencisinden oluşmaktadır. Ölçeğin geçerliği için, Faktör analizi gerçekleştirilmiştir. Ayrıca ölçeğin ayırt edici geçerliğini belirlemek üzere, Fonksiyonel Olmayan Tutumlar Ölçeği, Otonomi-Sosyotropi Ölçeği, Kısa Semptom Envanteri kullanılmıştır. Ölçeğin güvenilirliği, Cronbach alfa, test tekrar test ve madde test toplam puan korelasyon katsayılarının hesaplanmasıyla gerçekleştirilmiştir. Bulgular: KKKÖ’nün faktör analizi sonucu ölçeğin iki boyutlu olduğu saptanmıştır. Ölçek toplam varyansın %36.77”sini açıklamaktadır. KKKÖ’nin ayırt edici geçerliği için uygulanan sosyotropi ve kısa semptom envanteri ve fonksiyonel olmayan tutumlar ölçeği puanlarıyla anlamlı düzeyde ilişki kaydedilmiştir. Ölçeğin güvenirliği için
gerçekleştirilen Cronbach alfa değeri .76, test
tekrar test korelasyonu r=.62 ve maddetoplam
puan korelasyonları .40-72 arasında
değişmektedir. Sonuç: Araştırma verilerilerinin analizi
sonucu Koşulsuz Kendini Kabul Ölçeğinin Türk
üniversite öğrencileri için geçerli ve güvenilir
şekilde kullanılabileceği sonucuna varılmıştır.
Gerek terapi ve danışma sürecinde gerekse
koşulsuz kabülün ilişkili olduğu değişkenlerin
belirlenmesinde araştırmacılarca kullanılabilir
bir ölçektir.
