Anlaşmazlığı Hoşgörme Ölçeğinin (AHÖ) Türkçeye Uyarlanması

Bu araştırmanın amacı, Anlaşmazlığı Hoşgörme Ölçeğini (Teven, McCroskey, & Richmond, 1998) Türkçeye uyarlamaktır. Sakarya ve Marmara Üniversitesi öğrencilerinden elde edilen verilerle gerçekleştirilen bu araştırmaya 115 kız ve 113 erkek olmak üzere toplam 228 üniversite öğrencisi katılmıştır. Doğrulayıcı faktör analizinde tek boyutlu modelin iyi uyum verdiği görülmüştür (?2= 167.07, sd=87, RMSEA= .064, RMR= .15, SRMR= .071, GFI= .91, AGFI= .88). Ölçeğin Cronbach’s alpha iç tutarlık katsayısı .67 olarak hesaplanmıştır. Ayrıca ölçeğin düzeltilmiş madde-toplam korelasyonlarının .05 ile .51 arasında sıralandığı ve %27’lik alt-üst grupların ortalamaları arasındaki tüm farkların anlamlı olduğu bulunmuştur. Bu sonuçlar, Anlaşmazlığı Hoşgörme Ölçeği’nin Türkçe formunun araştırmalarda kullanılabilecek geçerli ve güvenilir bir ölçme aracı olarak değerlendirilebileceğini göstermektedir.

Adaptation of the Tolerance for Disagreement Scale (TFDS) into Turkish

The aim of this research is to examine the validity and reliability of the Turkish version of the Tolerance for Disagreement Scale (Teven et al., 1998). Participants were 228 undergraduate students (115 female, 113 male) from Marmara and Kocaeli Universities. Results of confirmatory factor analysis demonstrated that this scale yielded one factor, as original form and that the model was well fit (?2= 167.07, df= 87, RMSEA= .064, RMR= .15, SRMR= .071, GFI= .91, AGFI= .88). The Cronbach’s alpha internal consistency coefficient of the scale was .67. Corrected item-total correlations ranged .05 to .51, and according to t-test results differences between each item’s means of upper 27% and lower 27% points were significant. Overall findings demonstrated that Thus Tolerance for Disagreement Scale had high validity and reliability scores and that it may be used as a valid and reliable instrument in order to tolerance for disagreement.
