The objective of this study was to create a psychometrically valid and reliable toxic leadership scale (TLS) for use in higher education workplace environments. The TLS was administered to a sample of 482 faculty members employed by three public universities in Jordan. Another aim of the study was to determine the level of toxic leadership based…

Purpose: To examine the factor structure and measurement invariance of the Körperkoordinations Test Für Kinder (KTK) and covariates of motor competence in a sample of Iranian children aged 5-14 years. Methods: Participants were children aged 5-14 years (N = 432, 61% boys). Age, sex, and body mass index were collected. Confirmatory factor analysis…

The "metaverse," which bridges augmented and virtual reality as mixed reality and includes technological phenomena such as artificial intelligence, continues to be an agenda topic.

The transition of traditional classroom teaching to online teaching platforms in English as a foreign or second language context has caused the shift of teachers' motivational factors. The present study aimed to develop a new motivational teaching instrument and provide indication for the scale's validity and reliability of English for Specific…

An instrument was validated through factorial structure to measure the advantages, levels of reflection, and communicative competencies of the podcast, as well as to establish the levels of reliability and consistency of the measuring instrument. Likewise, confirmatory analysis was carried out to validate the proposed structural model and…

This investigation utilized publicly available data from the High School Longitudinal Study 2009 (HSLS:09) by the National Center for Educational Statistics (NCES) to examine any latent structures among variables which may empirically support the validity and reliability of a mathematical sense of belonging (MSB) construct. Using the nationally…

The "My Children's Future Scale" (MCFS) measures the support provided by parents for their children's careers. The aim of this study was to adapt the MCFS to Turkish and examine its psychometric characteristics in a study conducted in the Turkish context. Participants consisted of 280 parents (190 mothers and 90 fathers). The factor…

The three-factor model structure of the School Counseling Program Implementation Survey was tested with a national sample (N=275) of school counselors. Confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) suggested a modified two-factor model was the most appropriate fit. Implications and future research for the school counseling profession are discussed.

Intrinsic motivation has a crucial role in students' learning and should therefore be taken into consideration in educational activities. In this study, the short scale of intrinsic motivation scale developed by Wilde et al. in 2009 was adapted to Turkish Culture.

The purpose of this study was to examine the psychometric properties of the Self-Efficacy Questionnaire for Online Learning (SeQoL; Shen et al., 2013). Using two samples of college students, this study examined evidence of construct validity, concurrent validity, convergent validity, and reliability for the SeQoL. Confirmatory factor analysis and…

Like many youth development programs, most youth mentoring programs do not have prescribed practices that target specific outcomes. Because the construct of mentoring represents a broad range of potential activities, researchers face a conundrum when making generalizable causal inferences about the effects of this and similar services. On the one…

This study investigated the factorial invariance of the Taiwan Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children, Fifth Edition (WISC-V) across age and gender. A higher order five-factor model was tested on a nationally representative sample of 1,034 children aged 6-16 years. The results demonstrated full factorial invariance for Taiwan children of…

One common self-assessment of creativity is the Kaufman Domains of Creativity Scale (K-DOCS). This article provides support for a Turkish translation of the instrument, offering exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis to determine whether the factors were consistent across cultures. The participants consisted of two groups. The first group…

We present a validation study of fifteen new math anxiety scale items designed to augment the widely-used Revised Mathematics Anxiety Scale (RMARS). While the RMARS and other standard instruments measure students' anxiety in response to computation, test situations, and math course activities such as buying a textbook or watching a lecture, the…

This study adapts "Change Fatigue Scale" into Turkish cultural context for potential uses in future empirical studies. It also aims to validate it for educational organizations, so the items were revised accordingly. There were three different study groups in the study.
