Abstract:

The purpose of this study was to develop a scale towards career planning of sports sciences students. Study group consisted of 543 students who were attending in physical education and sports teaching, sports management, and coaching departments in Siirt University. Construct validity of scale was tested through factor analysis [WK1] and confirmatory factor analysis. Reliability of scale was measured through Cronbach Alpha and test-retest test. Discrimination of scale was tested between down %27 and up %27. Correlation analysis was made between scale factors. In order to calculate the reliability of 23 items in Career Planning Scale, Cronbach Alpha which is a inner consistency coefficient was calculated. General reliability of scale were found to be high as alpha=0.885. Analysis results have demonstrated that adjustment statistics calculated through confirmatory factor analysis showed a significant adjustment and positive correlations were determined between scale sub-dimensions and general scores as a result of correlation analysis (p<0,05).
