Bu çalışmada, pozitif duygu durumlarının (mutlu, huzurlu gibi) ölçülmesinde kullanılmak üzere geliştirilen 14 maddelik Pozitif Duygu Durum Ölçeği’nde yer alan likert tipi maddelerin beşli tepki kategorileri için maddeler-içi ve maddeler-arası geçişlilik özellikleri Aşamalı Tepki Modeli, Kısmi Puanlama Modeli ve Dereceli Ölçekleme Modeli kullanılarak karşılaştırmalı olarak incelenmiştir. Her bir model için, model veri uyumu, ölçekte yer alan maddelerin tepki kategorileri, kategori eşik (threshold) değerleri ve kategori sıraları hesaplanmış, maddeler arası eşdeğerlik varsayımının ne kadar sağlandığı incelenmiştir. Model veri uyumu, model kestirimlerinden elde edilen -2log likelihood ki-kare değerleri, AIC ve BIC değerleri kullanılarak değerlendirilmiştir. Uygulama verisinde 339 gönüllü katılımcı yer almaktadır ve ölçek için hesaplanan Cronbach α güvenirlik katsayısı 0.92’dir. Analizler ölçeğin tek boyutlu bir yapıya sahip olduğunu göstermektedir. Model-veri uyumu değerlendirmesi sonucunda veriye en iyi uyum sağlayan modelin Aşamalı Tepki Modeli olduğu sonucu elde edilmiştir. Aşamalı Tepki Modeli ile parametre kestirimi yapılan maddeler için gözlenen kategori eşik parametrelerinin hem madde içlerinde beklendiği gibi neredeyse eşit aralıklar ile sıralı olduğu hem de bu aralıkların ölçeği oluşturan tüm maddeler için karşılaştırılabilir olduğu sonucu elde edilmiştir.

The purpose of this study was to investigate within- and between-threshold parameter invariance for items of a fourteen-item Positive Affect Scale developed to assess positive moods (like happy, peaceful, etc.) of university students. To test whether the estimated threshold parameters were as expected (1 to 5, with increments of 1) across all the 14 items, Graded Response, Partial Credit, and Rating Scale Models were fit the response data collected from 326 students. A comparison of the model fit statistics, such as the negative 2log likelihood and chi-square values, revealed that the Graded Response Model had the best fit and that the thresholds estimates for all the items in the Positive Affective Scale were reasonably close to the expected 1 to 5 values with increments of 1. The study illustrates how polytomous response models can be used to test the psychometric quality of items with ordinal rating scales.
