Özet:

The aim of this research is to adapt the scale, whose original name is "Talent Development Environment Questionnaire for Sport", into Turkish and to study its validity and reliability. The reliability of the scale was measured by Cronbach's Alpha coefficient, item correlation analysis and item difference analysis, and was supported by composite reliability (CR) measurements. Explanatory and confirmatory factor analyses were performed for validity, and average variance extracted (AVE) values were also checked. In order to test the normality distribution of the scale, kurtosis and skewness values were calculated, and Pearson correlation analysis was performed to test the relationship between the factors. The reliability coefficient of the scale was found as α=.721. CR values were found between 0.79-0.89. As a result of the explanatory factor analysis, it was seen that the scale consisted of five sub-dimensions and had sufficient factor load. AVE values were found to be between 0.49-0.67. According to the confirmatory factor analysis results, the fit indices were found as x2/sd 1.72, RMSEA 0.035, GFI 0.95, NFI 0.92, CFI 0.96, RMR 0.03. Reliability analysis results show that the scale is reliable, item difference analysis and item correlation analysis show that the scale does not change over time and is consistent. It was observed that the scale preserved its original factor structure, but three items belonging to the HQP factor did not carry sufficient factor load and were removed from the scale. The resulting 22-item and 5 sub-dimension scale was adapted and found suitable for use in Turkish.
