Adaptation of The Personality Traits Scale of E-Sports Players to Turkish Culture

Abstract

Aim: This study aims to adapt the scale developed by Yim et al. (2023) for measuring the personality traits of e-sport players to Turkish culture. Methods: This study, which was designed in accordance with the scale adaptation study, is a descriptive research that questions the current situation. Results: The scale was translated into Turkish using the forward-backward translation method with the assistance of six personality experts. Data for the study were collected from 240 e-sport players who voluntarily agreed to participate. To validate the structure previously established by Kim et al. (2023) for Turkish culture, Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA) and Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) were conducted. Reliability analyses were performed using test-retest and Cronbach's Alpha methods. The SPSS 23 program was used for EFA, while the Amos package was utilized for CFA. The analysis results confirmed the scale's nine-item, single-factor structure. The reliability findings indicated that the internal consistency and test-retest values fell within the expected range. Conclusion: As a result, the Turkish adaptation of the scale, conducted in this study, has been identified as a valid and reliable measurement tool for determining the personality traits of e-sport players in Turkey.
