ABSTRACT

Conclusion:

Based on the findings of the research, it has been revealed that the Turkish version of the Adolescent Distress Eustress Scale is a valid and reliable measurement tool.

Results:

The construct validity of the scale was examined by confirmatory factor analysis and the dual structure, which constituted the subdimensions of the Adolescent Boredom Estress scale (ADES), was confirmed. As a result of the criterion compliance validity study, negative correlations were found between the ADES-Distress sub-dimension and the General Self-Efficacy scale and positively significant correlations were found with the Perceived Stress Scale. Positive significant relationships were detected between ADES-Eustress sub-dimension and General Self-Efficacy scale, and negative significant relationships were found with the Perceived Stress Scale. As a result of the internal consistency analysis, the reliability Cronbach alpha coefficient was calculated as .81 for the ADES-Distress sub-dimension and .84 for the ADES-Eustress sub-dimension.

Materials and Methods:

In the 2019-2020 academic year, a total of 366 high school students, 261 female and 105 male, studying at different official secondary schools in Tuzla, Istanbul, participated in the study. In order to examine the psychometric properties of the Turkish version of the scale, linguistic equivalence, criterion concordance validity, calculation of internal consistency coefficient and confirmatory factor analysis were performed.

Objectives:

The aim of this study is to analyze the psychometric properties of Adolescent Distress Eustress Scale developed by Branson, Dry, Palmer and Turnbull, such as validity and reliability, and to carry out adaptation studies to Turkish.
