The validity and reliability of scale was investigated by test re-test, Cronbach alpha, confirmatory factor analysis and criterion related validity methods. The Career Adaptability and Optimism Scale was used for the criterion related validity. The participants of research were 332 (183 female and 149 male) teachers who were employed in different schools in Istanbul and Sakarya. Results of confirmatory factor analysis indicated that the five-dimensional Career and Work Adaptability model (confidence, control, cooperation, curiosity, and concern) was well fit (x²=1082.87, df= 416, RMSEA=.052, NNFI= .90, CFI=.91, IFI=.91, RFI=.84, GFI= .89, SRMR= .047). The internal consistency coefficients of five subscales were .83, .69, .88, .81, and .67 respectively. In the concurrent validity significant relationship (r= .43) was found between the Career Adaptability-Optimism Scale and the Career -Work Adaptability Questionnaire. The overall internal consistency coefficient of the scale was .93. Test-retest reliability coefficient was .72. The corrected item-total correlations of CWAQ ranged from .40 to .63. The t-test results differences between each item’s means of upper 27% and lower 27% points were significant. Overall findings demonstrated that this scale had high validity and reliability scores and that it may be used in order to measure degree of career adaptability accurately.

Yani iş ve meslek sahibi olmak ne kadar zor ise kariyer hayatına atıldıktan sonra iş ve mesleğe uyum sağlamak bir o kadar zor gözükmektedir. Bu yüzden çalışanların iş ve mesleğine uyum yetenek düzeylerini belirlemek oluşturulacak önlem programları için önem arz etmektedir. Bu araştırmanın amacı Nota, Ginevra ve Soresi (2012) tarafından geliştirilen İş ve Meslek Hayatına Uyum Ölçeğini Türkçeye uyarlamak ve ölçeğin geçerlik ve güvenirlik analizlerini yapmaktır.
