Abstract

The main aims of this study; is to develop “the Motivational Factors Scale for being in AKUT (The Search and Rescue Association) AGOÖ and define the validity and reliability for Turkish population. This research is descriptive research and restricted by the Operation Team members of AKUT. In this study, sampling has been applied and an electronic questionnaire form has been sent to all participants.  Electronic questionnaire form was delivered to all AKUT operation team members by emails by AKUT Central Office there times in every 20 days. Returning accepted between the dates 1th January 2015-1th March 2015.

Exploratory factor analysis (EFA) was done, and varimax rotation was performed on 24 items for AGOÖ and the AGOÖ was grouped into six factors. Whether the data was suitable to this analysis, Kaiser Mayer Olkin and Bartlett Spheritiy test results were taken into consideration and then, EFA was performed. Cronbach’s Alpha internal consistency test was applied to the identified sub-factors and overall scale. Pearson Correlations Test was conducted to define the statistical correlation between sub-classes and items. Results have been assessed according to significant level 0.01 and 0.05.

As a result, it was founded that Cronbach’s Alpha=0,930 and total explained variance= %74,598. It can be concluded that “the Motivational Factors Scale for being Volunteer in AKUT” has reliability and validity in the estimation of “The Volunteer Motivation Factors Scale for being in AKUT” for the Turkish population.

 

Özet

Bu çalışmanın amacı AKUT Kentsel Operasyon Ekibinde olanların AKUT’a dahil olmak ve gönüllülüğü sürdürmek için onları motive eden nedenlerin belirlendiği AKUT’ta Gönüllü Olma Ölçeğinin (AGOÖ) Türk popülasyonu için geçerlilik güvenirliliğini yapmaktır.  Tanımlayıcı araştırma modelinde olan bu çalışmanın ana kütlesi AKUT’un  Kentsel Operasyon Ekibinde yer alan 420 kişiden oluşmaktadır. Çalışmada elektronik anket formu veri toplama aracı olarak kullanılmıştır. Elektronik anket formu AKUT merkez ofis aracılığıyla tüm kentsel operasyon ekibine doldurulması ricasıyla 20 şer gün arayla gönderilmiş ve 1 Ocak 2015- 1 Mart 2015 tarihleri arasında cevaplanan 208 anket değerlemeye alınmıştır.   

Açıklayıcı faktör analizi (AFA) yapılarak AGOÖ ölçeğinin alt boyutları belirlenmiş ve toplam 24 madde ve altı faktörden oluşan ölçek elde edilmiştir. KMO ve Bartlett küresellik testlerinin sonuçları  AFA’nın uygulanabilirliliğini yeterli kılmıştır. Çalışmada Varimax döndürme yöntemi kullanılmıştır. Yapı geçerliliğini test etmek için madde-faktör analizi yapılmıştır. Ölçeğin iç tutarlılığını değerlendirmek için alt boyutların Cronbach's Alpha değerlerine bakılmış ve sonuçlar 0.01 ve 0.05 anlamlılık düzeyinde sorgulanmıştır.

Sonuç olarak; AGOÖ ölçeğinin Cronbach’s Alpha katsayısı 0,930 ve ölçeğin açıkladığı varyans %74,598 olarak bulunmuştur. AGOÖ ölçeğinin bireyin AKUT’ta gönüllü olmaya ve gönüllülüğünü sürdürmeye motive eden faktörlerin açıklanmasında Türk popülasyonu için açıklamaya yeterli olduğu sonucuna varılabilir.
