The purpose of this study was to explore validity and reliability of the Lifespan Sibling Relationship Scale (LSRS) which was developed by Riggio (2000) in a sample of young adults. The research has been conducted on 510 (339 female, 171 male) university students who attended pedagogical formation training at Dokuz Eylül University and fourth grade students who attended various departments of Faculty of Education. The six factor structure of the LSRS was tested by means of confirmatory factor analysis method. The findings indicated that the six-factor model is supported by using the confirmatory factor analysis. The reliability of LSRS was examined with test-retest reliability and internal consistency methods. Results showed that the scale can be used for measuring sibling relationships in young adults.
Özet
Bu araştırmanın amacı Riggio (2000) tarafından geliştirilen Yaşam Boyu Kardeş İlişkileri Ölçeği’nin (YBKİÖ) genç yetişkinlerden oluşan bir örneklemde geçerlik ve güvenirlik çalışmasını yapmaktır. Araştırma, Dokuz Eylül Üniversitesi’nde pedagojik formasyon eğitimi alan ve Eğitim Fakültesi’nin çeşitli bölümlerine devam eden dördüncü sınıf öğrencileri olan toplam 510 (339 kız, 171 erkek) öğrenci ile yürütülmüştür. YBKİÖ’nün altı faktörlü yapısı doğrulayıcı faktör analizi yöntemi ile test edilmiştir. Elde edilen sonuçlar, YBKİÖ’nün altı faktörlü yapısının doğrulandığını göstermiştir. Ölçeğin güvenirlik çalışması, test-tekrar test güvenirlik katsayısı ve iç tutarlılık katsayısı ile hesaplanmıştır. Elde edilen sonuçlar, YBKİÖ’nün genç yetişkinlerde kardeş ilişkilerinin değerlendirmek üzere geçerli ve güvenilir bir ölçme aracı olarak kullanılabileceğini göstermiştir.
