KISA AZİM (SEBAT) ÖLÇEĞİNİN TÜRKÇEYE UYARLANMASI: GEÇERLİK VE GÜVENİRLİK ÇALIŞMASI
Özet
The aim of this study is the Turkish adaptation of the Grit-S and examination of its psychometric properties. Participants were 186 (108 females and 78 males) university students who were enrolled in Kütahya and Ağrı, Turkey. Their ages ranged from 18 to 27, and the mean age of the participants was 21.3 years. Motivational Persistence Scale was used for concurrent validity. There is a significant correlation between the original and Turkish version of the scale in the equivalency was .89 (p= .00). Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin (KMO) measure of sampling adequacy of .83 and a significant result on Bartlett’s test of sphericity χ2= 503,877 (p<.001, df=24). Results of confirmatory factor analyses demonstrated that 8 items yielded two factors as original form and that the two-dimensional model was well fit (χ2/df=2.06, p=.00011, RMSEA= .046, CFI=.95, GFI=.94, AGFI=.93, SRMR=.047). Factor loadings ranged from .42 to .77. In the concurrent validity significant relationships (r= .68) was found between the Motivational Persistence Scale and Shor Grit Scale. Cronbach alpha internal consistency coefficient was found as .83 for whole scale, .80 for sub-dimension of consistency of interest, .71 for sub-dimension of perseverance of effort. Test-retest reliability coefficient was .69 for whole scale. Corrected item-total correlations ranged from .33 to .65. As a result, it is possible to say that the Grit-S is a valid and reliable measurement tool to be used for the purpose of measuring grit, persevarance and persistence levels of individuals.
