Adaptation of authenticity scale to turkish: A validity and reliability study

Abstract: In this study psychometric properties of Turkish version of the Authenticity Scale were investigated. The current study was carried out in two steps. In the first step the Turkish version of the scale were administered to 165 (97 women, 68 men) undergraduate and teacher certification program students. In order to examine factor structure of the scale a confirmatory factor analysis was performed. In the second step of the current study, the data were collected from 240 (161 women, 79 men) undergraduate students to examine concurrent validity and prediction validity of the scale. Results showed that the confirmatory factor analysis provided good fit indexes (/ sd = 1.49, RMSEA = .05, CFI = .95, IFI = .95, GFI = .92). Each subscale was significantly related to subjective well-being (SWB) and need satisfaction (i.e. autonomy). Furthermore, authenticity contributed variance of subjective well-being after controlling for autonomy. In conclusion, the results provide that The Authenticity Scale is valid and reliable.
