%0 Journal Article %T Leisure Benefit Scale: A Study of Validity and Reliability %A Beyza Merve AKG¨¹L %J - %D 2018 %X The aim of this study was to develop a Turkish version of the ¡°Leisure Benefit Scale¡± and to test its validity and reliability. The Leisure Benefits Scale contains 24 items, which are expressed on a 5-point Likert scale. The scale was tested on a total of 421 Turkish individuals over 20 years of age. First of all, lingual equivalence of the scale was applied. The sample group (n=421) was used to test data using confirmatory factor analysis (CFA). Confirmatory factor analysis confirmed this 3-factor solution (confirmatory factor analysis, GFI=0.96, NFI=0.94, CFI=0.95, IFI 0.95, SRMR 0.05) Internal consistency coefficient of the whole scale was found to be .83 and the 3 sub-dimensions ranged from 0.80 to 0.86. The results demonstrate that the Turkish version of the scale is a valid and reliable instrument for Turkish individuals %K £¿l£¿ek %K Rekreasyon faydalar£¿ %K Do£¿rulay£¿c£¿ fakt£¿r analizi %U http://dergipark.org.tr/gbesbd/issue/33514/310493
