This study
aims to develop a measurement tool to determine the level of academic jealousy.
For this purpose, firstly, the literature was examined, and a theoretical
framework was formed, and then an item set of 47 items was created. The items
that were submitted to expert opinion were eliminated and corrected, and 41
items were decided to use, and a trial form was obtained. In this study, 478
university students were reached. One-on-one interviews were conducted with ten
students who are studying at Alanya Alaaddin Keykubat University before the
trial application. Then, the trial form was applied to 254 university students,
and the data obtained were analyzed with Exploratory Factor Analysis, and as a
result of this analysis, a structure with three factors (maturity,
self-denigration, and envy) was revealed. In order to test the defined
structure, the final form of the scale was applied to another group of 154
people, and the data obtained were subjected to Confirmatory Factor Analysis,
and goodness of fit indices of the scale was found to be between good fit or
acceptable fit. Accordingly, the structure with 19-item and three factors was
confirmed Cronbach Alpha internal consistency coefficient of the whole scale
was found .779, Envy subfactor was found .840; self-denigration subfactor was
found .840 and Maturity subfactor was found .817. In order to determine the
reliability of the scale in terms of stability, the scale was applied to a
different group of 57 people at two-week intervals, and the correlation between
the two applications was recorded as .89. It was concluded that the Academic
Jealousy Scale developed according to these findings, is a valid measurement
tool and will give reliable scores in measuring academic jealousy.
