Abstract

<p style="text-align:justify">The aim of this research is to adapt the Trait orgivingness Scale (Berry, Worthington, O?Connor, Parrott III, & Wade, 2004) to Turkish and to examine its psychometric properties. The research was conducted on total 677 (289 + 388) university students in two mid-state university. The validity and reliability of scale was investigated by test re-test, Cronbach alpha, exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis and criterion related validity methods. and The Humility scale were used for the criterion related validity. Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin (KMO) measure of sampling adequacy of . 66.6 and a significant result on Bartlett?s test of sphericity ?2= 518,353 (p< .001, df= 120). Results confirmatory factor analyses demonstrated that 10 items yielded one factors as original form and that the one-dimensional model was well fit (x?= 106.47, sd= 32, RMSA= .077, CI= .89, GI= .95, AGI= .91, SRMR= .062). actor loadings ranged from .52 to .77. Cronbach alpha internal consistency coefficient was found as . 67 In the concurrent validity significant relationships (r= .84), (r= .52) were found between the Trait orgivingness Scale and The Heartland orgiveness Scale, The Humility Scale. Test-retest reliability coefficient was .88. Corrected item-total correlations ranged from .37 to .48. Overall results demonstrated that the Humility Scale can be named as a valid and reliable instrument that could be used in the field of psychology, psychiatry and education.</p>
