Öz: Bu çalışmanın amacı Gould ve ark. (2011) tarafından geliştirilmiş olan Ciddi Boş Zaman Ölçeği-Kısa Formu (CBZÖ-KF) (18-Madde)'nun Türkçe geçerlik ve güvenirliğinin test edilmesidir. Çalışmanın örneklem grubunu Türkiye'de farklı amatör liglerde futbol oynayan ve yaşları 16 ila 38 arasında değişen (Xyaş=20,64+/-5,69) 330 amatör futbolcu oluşturmuştur. Ciddi Boş Zaman Ölçeği-Kısa Formu (18-Madde)'nun Türkçe'ye uyarlanması belirli aşamalardan geçmiştir. Öncelikle dilsel eşdeğerlik çalışması yapılmıştır. Ölçek daha sonra sırasıyla kapsam geçerliliği, yapı geçerliliği, yakınsak geçerlilik ve ayrışma geçerliliği analizlerine tabii tutularak son şeklini almıştır. Ayrıca ölçeğin güvenirliliği için ise cronbach alfa iç tutarlılık katsayısından faydalanılmıştır. Yapılan analizler sonucunda geçerlik ve güvenirlik testlerinden elde edilen puanlar CBZÖ-KF'nin 18 maddeli 3 faktörlü yapısını desteklemektedir. Sonuç olarak; Ciddi Boş Zaman Ölçeği-Kısa Formu (18-Madde)'nun Türk popülasyonunun ciddi boş zaman eğilimlerini ölçmeye yönelik psikometrik nitelikleri sağlanan bir ölçme aracı olduğu sonucuna varılmıştır.
This study aimed to evaluate the estimated/judged results for elite archers before competitions in the context ofAchievement Goal Theory and determine its impact on actual performance. Also, the study assessed the impact ofgoal orientation on the competition scores to comprehend the relationship between goal orientation and performance.Study participants were 116 elite archers who participated in Adult-Youth Indoor Turkey Championship in Izmir.Before the competition, the participants filled in the “Task and Ego Orientation in Sport Questionnaire”. Before thisscale, a survey form, developed by the researcher, was given to participants to learn about their personalcharacteristics. The participants were asked to make a note of the numbers they wore on the chest of their uniformsand the predicted/judged scores on the survey form. They were informed that at the termination of the competition,their actual scores and their predicted scores would be compared. The study presents two important results. The firstresult is related to the fact that athletes with high goal orientation were significantly more successful than those withlow goal orientation in a real competition environment. The other result of in the current study was the significantrelationship between the pre-competition predictions/estimates of individuals with high goal orientation and theircompetition performances. This study is significant because it demonstrated that individuals with higher goalorientations have higher performances and that their predictions/estimates for their performance are much moreaccurate.
