Romantik İlişkide Bilinçli Farkındalık Ölçeği’nin Türkçeye Uyarlanması: Geçerlik ve Güvenirlik Çalışması

Bu çalışmanın amacı, Romantik İlişkide Bilinçli Farkındalık Ölçeği’nin (RİBFÖ) Türkçeye uyarlanması ve psikometrik özelliklerinin incelenmesidir. Araştırmanın çalışma grubu, romantik ilişkisi olan ve yaş aralığı 18 ile 61 yaş arasında değişen toplam 342 (249 kadın ve 93 erkek) bireyden oluşmuştur. Doğrulayıcı faktör analizi bulguları ölçeğin 5 maddeli ve tek boyutlu orijinal faktör yapısıyla paralel olduğunu ve modelin iyi uyuma sahip olduğunu göstermiştir. Ayrıca RİBFÖ ile eşdeğer ölçme araçları arasında bulunan pozitif yönde anlamlı korelasyon katsayıları, ölçeğin eşdeğer ölçek geçerliğine sahip olduğunu ortaya koymuştur. Güvenirlik analizlerinde ise ölçeğin Cronbach alfa iç tutarlık katsayısı .75 ve test-tekrar test güvenirliği .82 olarak hesaplanmıştır. Sonuç olarak RİBFÖ, romantik ilişki bağlamında bilinçli farkındalık düzeyini ölçmede kullanılabilecek kısa, geçerli ve güvenilir bir ölçme aracıdır.

Adaptation of the Relationship Mindfulness Measure into Turkish: The Validity and Reliability Study

The aim of this study was to adapt the Relationship Mindfulness Measure (RMM) into Turkish and to examine its psychometric properties. The study group of the research consisted of 342 (249 women and 93 men) people between the ages of 18-61 and having a romantic relationship. Confirmatory factor analysis findings showed that the scale is parallel to the 5-item and one-dimensional original factor structure and the model has good fit. In addition, the positive correlation coefficients found between RMM and equivalent measurement tools revealed that the scale has satisfactory equivalent scale validity. In the reliability study, Cronbach’s alpha was calculated to be .75 and the 3-week interval test-retest reliability was .81. As a result, RMM can be used as a valid and reliable short instrument to assess mindfulness level in the context of romantic relationship.
