Abstract

The main purpose of the current research is to adapt the Online Dating Intensity Scale (CFAS), developed by Bloom and Taylor (2019) to evaluate the frequency of use of individuals using online dating programs, into Turkish and to conduct reliability and validity studies of the scale. The sample of the research consists of 110 participants who have previously used and/or are currently using any online dating program. Within the scope of the current study, the original form of the scale was translated into Turkish by experts, and the back-translation was made by experts fluent in both languages. For the validity and reliability analyses of the scale, Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) was examined for construct validity, and Cronbach alpha internal consistency coefficient and Composite Reliability (CR) coefficients were examined for reliability analyses. Research findings revealed that the two-factor solution was confirmed in Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA). In addition, the Cronbach Alpha Coefficient of the scale is 0.92, and the Composite Reliability (CR) coefficients are 0.86 for the attitudes and 0.71 for intensity sub-dimensions. As a result, it was concluded that the scale has very good psychometric properties and allows a valid and reliable assessment of the intensity of online dating experiences in Turkish culture.

在线约会强度量表（odi）：土耳其语形式的有效性和可靠性研究

本研究的主要目的是将布鲁姆和泰勒（2019）为评估个人使用在线约会程序的频率而开发的在线约会强度量表（CFAS）改编成土耳其语，并对该量表进行信度和效度研究。研究样本包括 110 名曾经使用过和/或正在使用任何在线约会程序的参与者。在本次研究范围内，量表的原版由专家翻译成土耳其语，并由精通两种语言的专家进行回译。在对量表进行效度和信度分析时，对构建效度进行了确认性因子分析（CFA），对信度分析进行了 Cronbach alpha 内部一致性系数和复合信度（CR）系数。研究结果表明，双因素方案在确认性因素分析（CFA）中得到了证实。此外，量表的 Cronbach Alpha 系数为 0.92，态度和强度子维度的综合信度系数分别为 0.86 和 0.71。因此，结论是该量表具有非常好的心理测量特性，可以对土耳其文化中的网恋体验强度进行有效、可靠的评估。
