Perceived Autonomy Support

The purpose of this study was to examine the validity and reliability of Perceived Autonomy Support Scale for Exercise Settings (PASSES; Hagger et al., 2007) from teacher and from peers in Turkish context. It was conducted with volunteer university students. 230 university students completed PASSES from teacher, and 142 university students completed PASSES from peers. Each scale has 12 items with a unidimension structure. The items were rated on a 7-point Likert type scale from totally disagree (1) to totally agree (7). Each scale was analyzed by using confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) to determine validity and by using Cronbach alpha value to determine reliability. The validity analyses for each scale showed good fit indexes in Turkish context. The reliability analyses also showed high reliability scores for each scale. Results were consistent with previous studies. It was suggested that PASSES from teacher and from peers can be used in Turkish context. ÖzetBu araştırmanın amacı “Egzersizde Algılanan Özerklik Desteği Ölçeğinin” (Perceived Autonomy Support Scale for Exercise Settings; Hagger ve diğ., 2007) hem öğretmen hem de arkadaşlar versiyonunu Türkçeye uyarlamak ve her iki ölçeğin geçerlik ve güvenirliğini incelemektir. Bu amaçla Türkçeye çevrilen ölçekler bir grup üniversite öğrencisine uygulanmıştır (öğretmen versiyonu için n = 230; arkadaşlar versiyonu için n = 142). Tek boyutlu olan ölçekler 12 ifadeden oluşmaktadır ve ifadeler tamamen katılmıyorum (1)’dan tamamen katılıyorum (7)’a doğru sıralanan yedili Likert üzerinden değerlendirilmektedir. Ölçeğin yapı geçerliğini belirlemek için doğrulayıcı faktör analizi uygulanmış, iç güvenirliğini tespit etmek için de Cronbach alfa kat sayısı hesaplanmıştır. Her iki ölçeğin yapı geçerliği bulguları iyi uyum indeksleri göstermiştir. Her iki ölçeğin iç güvenirlik kat sayıları da oldukça yüksek olarak hesaplanmıştır. Elde edilen bulgular alan yazında ilgili araştırmalarla benzerlik göstermektedir. Egzersizde Algılanan Özerklik Desteği Ölçeğinin hem öğretmen hem de arkadaşlar versiyonunun Türkçede ilgili araştırmalarda kullanılabileceği önerilmektedir.

The Impact

Phubbing is defined as ignoring people with whom you have a face-to-face relationship to attend to smartphones. The phenomenon of phubbing particularly affects the teenage and young segments of the population. The main problem lies in the impact it has on individuals’ social relationship. A lack of validated instruments to diagnose this phenomenon has been observed amongst the Spanish-speaking youth. The objective pursued with this research was to analyse the structural validity and reliability of the Spanish scale in a sample of 454 Peruvian university students. A reliability study was carried out following Cronbach and McDonald, complemented with an exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis. The results show good reliability and validity values. Finally, some aspects associated with users’ profiles in relation to the scale were discussed too. A need exists to have adapted instruments which permit to measure emerging social threats such as phubbing, so that risk profiles can be identified and for us to be able to act in time. Most of the students surveyed regularly engaged in phubbing, and a significant percentage of them had personal and social problems because of this, including lack of sleep hours or arguments with friends and relatives, to quote but two.

The purpose of this study is to adapt Digital Educational Games Usage Scale (DEGUS) that was developed byBonanno & Kommers (2008) to Turkish with the companion of a group of university students studying in departmentof English Teaching. In order for scale items to be the same in terms of language, firstly the translations of the itemswere carried out both from English to Turkish and Turkish to English, afterwards examining the forms gathered fromthe students, significant and positive correlations were detected among the data. Exploratory and confirmatory factoranalyses revealed that the scale had four dimensions. In item total correlation calculation of the scale it was observedthat all the items were above .40, item factor loads varied between .51 and .68, Cronbach Alpha internal consistencycoefficient was .78 and test retest correlation was .88. Significant relations were in the calculations regarding thecorrelation analyses of the scale.

The Relationship

This study aimed to find out the level of academic resilience (AR), meaning of life (MOL) and the relationship between them among students at Koya University. 740 samples were selected randomly. The researcher used two scales; one scale adapted academic resilience scale by Cassidy (2016), and meaning of life scale was developed by the researchers. Principle Component Analysis (PCA) was conducted to test the validity of the meaning of life items. The validity and reliability of the instruments were at convinced level. The result showed that the students have a low level of academic resilience and a high level of meaning of life; the result showed a statistically positive relationship between academic resilience and meaning of life, also the result showed that the academic resilience was predicted meaning of life.
