Bu
araştırmanın amacı, Algılanan Romantik İlişki Kalitesi Yapıları Envanteri’nin
(The Perceived Relationship Quality Components [PRQC] Inventory)  6 maddeli kısa formunun Algılanan Romantik
İlişki Kalitesi Ölçeği (ARİKÖ) adıyla Türkçe’ye uyarlanması, geçerlik ve
güvenirlik çalışmalarının yapılmasıdır. Araştırmada, uygun örnekleme yöntemiyle
ulaşılan, Adnan Menderes Üniversitesi’nde eğitimine devam eden ve romantik
ilişkisi bulunan toplam 366 katılımcı (n =
279 kadın, %76.2; n = 87 erkek,
%23.8) yer almıştır. Katılımcıların yaşları 18 ile 25 (Ort = 20.22, ss = 1.56) arasında değişmiştir. Medyan
romantik ilişki süresi 1 yıl ve üzeri olarak hesaplanmıştır. Doğrulayıcı faktör
analizi sonuçları, ARİKÖ’nün 6 maddeli ve tek boyutlu orijinal faktör yapısının
hedef örneklemde de doğrulandığını göstermiştir. ARİKÖ ile ölçüt ölçme araçları
arasında saptanan orta ve yüksek düzey anlamlı korelasyon katsayıları,
ARİKÖ’nün yeterli ölçüt-bağıntılı geçerliğe sahip olduğunu göstermiştir. Güvenirlik
çalışmasında, ARİKÖ’nün Cronbach alfa katsayısı .86, yapı güvenirliği .87 ve
test-tekrar test güvenirliği .81 olarak hesaplanmıştır. Tüm bu araştırma
bulguları, ARİKÖ’nün 18-25 yaş aralığında bulunan beliren yetişkinlerin
algıladıkları genel romantik ilişki kalitesinin ölçümünde araştırmacılar ve
uygulayıcılar tarafından kullanılabilecek kısa, geçerli ve güvenilir bir ölçme
aracı olduğunu göstermiştir.
