Abstract

The purpose of this study; is to developed “The motivational factor scale for participating in RUNTALIA which one of the oldest sport festival in Turkey- SFKMÖ” and define the validity and reliability for Turkish population.

The study was descriptive and sampling group was consisted of 276 volunteer participants who randomly selected among 6689 total participants, who accept filling questionnaire when making application; classic macaroni party in Saturday and after run. The questionnaire form was in Turkish and English.

Exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and confirmatory factor analysis were done, and varimax rotation was performed for SFKMÖ and the SFKMÖ was grouped into nine 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 can be concluded that “The motivational factor scale for participating in RUNTALIA-SFKMÖ” has reliability and validity in the estimation of the reasons of participating in RUNATOLIA for the Turkish population. 

 

Özet

Araştırmanın amacı;  Türkiye’nin en eski spor festivallerinden biri olan RUNATOLIA’a örneğinde “Bireyleri Spor Festivallerine Katılmaya Motive Eden Faktörler Ölçeği’nin (SFKMÖ)” geliştirilmesi ve geçerlilik güvenirliliğinin yapılmasıdır.

Ana kütle toplam 6689 kişiden oluşmaktadır. Örneklem; bireylerin yarışta takacakları göğüs numaralarını ve malzemelerini alındığı sırada, yarış öncesi düzenlenen makarna partisinde, yarışma öncesi ve yarışma sonrasında ankete gönüllü olarak katılmayı arzu eden tesadüfi örnekleme yöntemlerinden basit tesadüfi örnekleme yöntemiyle belirlenmiş 276 kişiden oluşmaktadır.  Araştırma tanımlayıcı bir araştırmadır.

Bu çalışmada veri toplama aracı olarak İngilizce ve Türkçe hazırlanan anket formu kullanılmıştır. Anket formunda bireylerin demografik bilgilerinin alındığı soruların yanında 44 maddeden oluşan bireylerin RUNATOLIA’aya Katılım Gerekçeleri’nin belirlendiği maddelerden oluşmuştur.

KMO ve Bartlett küresellik testlerinin sonuçlarına göre ölçeğe açıklayıcı faktör analizi (AFA) uygulanabilir olduğu için AFA uygulanmış, modelin geçerlilik ve güvenirliliği AFA ve Doğrularıyıcı Faktör Analizi (DFA) ile yapılmış ve SFKMÖ’nin dokuz alt boyutu ortaya konulmuştur.  Faktör analizi sonucunda oluşan SFKMÖ’nun yapı geçerliliğini test etmek için madde-faktör analizi yapılmıştır. Ölçeğin iç tutarlılığını değerlendirmek için Cronbach's Alpha katsayılarına, elde edilen ölçeğin maddeleri ve faktörleri arasındaki ilişkiye bakmak için test Pearson Corelation Testi kullanılmış ve sonuçlar 0.01 ve 0.05 anlamlılık düzeyinde sorgulanmıştır. 

Sonuç olarak hem AFA hem de DFA sonuçları açısından istatistiki limitler içinde olduğu için SFKMÖ Türk popülasyonu için kullanılabilecek bir ölçek olduğu söylenebilir.
