İki Boyutlu Sosyal İstenirlik Ölçeğinin Geliştirilmesi ve Psikometrik Özelliklerinin Araştırılması

Bu araştırmanın amacı İki boyutlu Sosyal İstenirlik Ölçeği\'nin geçerlik ve güvenirlik çalışmasını yapmaktır. Araştırma Sakarya, Marmara ve Anadolu Üniversitesi\'nde öğrenim gören 851 üniversite öğrencisi üzerinde yürütülmüştür. Açımlayıcı faktör analizi sonucunda 29 maddeden oluşan 2 faktörlü bir ölçme aracı elde edilmiştir. Bu faktörler öz-aldatma ve izlenim yönetimi olarak adlandırılmıştır. Doğrulayıcı faktör analizinden elde edilen uyum indeksi değerleri iki boyutlu sosyal istenirlik modelinin iyi uyum verdiğini göstermektedir. Ölçeğin faktör yükleri .34 ile .97 arasında sıralanmaktadır. Cronbach Alpha iç tutarlılık güvenirlik katsayıları izlenim yönetimi için .96, öz-aldatma için .95, test-tekrar test güvenirlik katsayıları ise izlenim yönetimi için

Anahtar Kelimeler:

Sosyal istenirlik, geçerlik, güvenirlik, doğrulayıcı faktör analizi.

Two Dimensional Social Desirability Scale: The Study Of Validity and Reliability

The aim of this research is to examine the validity and reliability of the Two-dimensional Social Desirability Scale. This study was conducted on 851 university students from Sakarya, Marmara, and Anadolu Universities. Exploratory factor analysis demonstrated that the scale yielded 2 factors, as self-deception and impression management. The fit index values which obtained from confirmatory factor analysis showed that the two-dimensional social desirability model fitted well. Cronbach Alpha internal consistency coefficients were .96 for impression management and .95 for self-deception and test-retest reliability coefficients were .79 for self-deception and .83 for impression management. According to these results this scale can be used as a valid and reliable instrument in education and psychology.

Keywords:

Social desirability, validity, reliability, confirmatory factor analysis.,
