Özet:

This study is aimed at developing a valid and reliable measurement tool that aims to describe the fans' perceptions of the level of sport clubs' confidence being shown. The research data was collected from a total of 248 football fans who participated voluntarily in the research in the provinces of Malatya, Kahramanmaraş, Elazığ, Kayseri, İzmir, Trabzon and Samsun. In the study, validity studies have been conducted in the framework of the detection and verification factor analysis. As part of the reliability studies, Cronbach Alpha has calculated internal consistency ratings, substance-total correlation ratings, and test-to-test correlation ratings. According to the analysis, the scale has a three-factor structure consisting of 22 items. The validity of this structure is also verified by the verifying factor analysis. The Cronbach-Alpha internal consistency ratio of the scale is calculated as ".991 for the Trainer Confidence size", "978" for the President Confidence size and "987" for the Athlete Confidence size. The test-up test correlation ratio between two different applications performed in a nine-day interval to determine the time consistency of the scale is calculated as ".82". After validity and reliability analyses, the scale has been shown to be used to describe the fans' perceptions of the level of reliability of the sports clubs in the current state.
