Abstract

Bu çalışmada, Frazier, Johnson, & Fainshmidt (2013) tarafından geliştirilmiş olan güven eğilimi ölçeğinin Türkçe’ye uyarlanarak geçerlik ve güvenirliğinin incelenmesi amaçlanmaktadır. Bu doğrultuda Türkiye’de öğrenciler (n = 287) ve çalışanlardan (n = 323) oluşan iki farklı örneklemden elde edilen veri ile açıklayıcı faktör analizi, doğrulayıcı faktör analizi, iç tutarlılık katsayıları ve geçerlik analizleri gerçekleştirilmiştir. Buna göre yapılan açıklayıcı faktör analizi sonuçları ölçeğin tek faktörlü bir yapısı olduğunu göstermiştir. Ayrıca gerçekleştirilmiş olan doğrulayıcı faktör analizi bulguları da ölçeğin tek faktörlü bir yapısı olduğunu ortaya koymuştur (χ²/sd = 1.345; p = .261; CFI = .999; TLI = .998; IFI = .999; RMSEA = .033; SRMR= .008). Güvenirlik analizleri bulguları ise alfa ve omega katsayılarının ölçeğin güvenilir olduğuna işaret ettiğini belirlemiştir. Ölçeğin geçerliğine yönelik olarak gerçekleştirilen ayrışma geçerliği, birleşme geçerliği ve ölçüt bağımlı geçerliğe yönelik değerlendirmeler ise  ölçeğin geçerliğini ortaya koymuştur. Yapılan açıklayıcı ve doğrulayıcı faktör analizleri ile geçerlilik ve güvenirlik analizlerinin sonucunda elde edilen bulgular güven eğilimi ölçeğinin geçerli ve güvenilir olarak değerlendirilebileceğini ortaya koymakta olup Türkiye’de yapılacak olan araştırmalarda kullanılabileceğini göstermektedir.

The Validity and Reliability of Propensity to Trust Scale

Abstract

In this study, it is aimed to assess the validity and reliability of propensity to trust scale developed by Frazier, Johnson, & Fainshmidt (2013) by adapting to Turkish. In this regard, explanatory factor analysis, confirmatory factor analysis, item analysis, internal consistency coefficients, and validity analyses are conducted with the data obtained from two different samples comprised of students (n = 287) and employees (n = 323) in Turkey. According to this, explanatory factor analysis results showed single factor consrtuct of the scale. Moreover, confirmatory factor analysis findings also revelaed single factor construct of this scale (χ/sd = 1.345; p = .261; CFI = .999; TLI = .998; IFI = .999; RMSEA = .033; SRMR= .008). Reliability analyses results showed Alpha and Omega coefficients indicate that the scale is reliable. Regarding the validity of the scale discriminant validity, convergent validity, and criterion related validity related assessments revealed the validity of the scale. The results of explanatory factor analysis, confirmatory factor analysis, validity, and reliability analyses findings revealed that Turkish version of propensity to trust scale is a valid and reliable instrument to use in studies in Turkey.
