Bu çalışmanın amacı, Akademik Potansiyele Yönelik İnanç ve Duygular Ölçeğini (Patall,
Awad, & Cestone, 2014) Türkçe’ye uyarlamak ve ölçeğin geçerlik ve güvenirliğini incelemektir. Araştırma
355 üniversite öğrencisi üzerinde yürütülmüştür. Doğrulayıcı faktör analizi sonuçları, 10 madde ve iki alt
boyuttan oluşan modelin (akademik potansiyel memnuniyeti ve algılanan akademik potansiyel) iyi uyum
verdiğini göstermiştir (x²= 59.60, sd= 29, RMSEA= .056, CFI= .97, IFI= .98, GFI= .97, SRMR= .036). Ölçeğin
iç tutarlık güvenirlik katsayıları, akademik potansiyel memnuniyeti alt ölçeği için .75, algılanan akademik
potansiyel alt ölçeği için .81 olarak bulunmuştur. Bu bulgular, ölçeğin geçerlik ve güvenirliğinin
sağlandığını göstermektedir.
