AMDYSQ-2 is 3 factors 15-items questionnaire. Data was collected from 286 student athletes. Cronbach’s Alpha Coefficient of the AMDYSQ was found 0,82 and test retest reliability coefficient was found 0,95. The validity of the AMDYSQ analyzed with exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis. Exploratory factor analysis was resulting 3 factors which explained 51.15% of the total variance. Fit indices values for all parameters were found to be acceptable level (Chi-square/df=2,32; GFI= 0,91; CFI= 0,95; NNFI= 0,93; RMSEA= 0,068; SRMR= 0,061). With this psychometric information, the structure obtained from the Turkish athletes were found to be similar characteristics with the original scale. As a result of this psychometric information, it was determined that the data obtained from the Turkish form of AMDYSQ-2 scale was described by the theoretical structure and reliability coefficients were sufficient.
