Journal Title: Kırıkkale Üniversitesi Sosyal Bilimler Dergisi - Kırıkkale University Journal of Social Sciences - Year 2017, Vol 7, Issue 1
Abstract
This study, as one of the first studies within the context of student affairs administration, designed to translate the “College Student Mentoring Scale” developed by Crisp (2009) into Turkish and ascertain its adaptability for Turkish university students. 390 students from the faculties of education and theology at Recep Tayyip Erdoğan University participated in the study. Of which, 71% are female and 29% are male. Language, construct and face validity results are reported. Scale relaibility results reported as Cronbach Alpha 0.87 and alternatively Omega 0.87. In obtaining a Turkish scale (model 3A) through confirmatory factor analysis, the researchers observed a good model-data fit. There are some limitations to consider: convenient sampling technique was used and two items are removed without suggesting alternative items. This study urges new university mentoring scales to be developed.
