摘要：AbstractLife positions scale developed by Boholst in 2002 consists of four sub-dimensions and 24 items. The language adaptation of the scale was done by Ahmet R. Özpolat. The correlations between turkish and english forms used for language adaptation were found significant at the level of p<.05, that is .79 for the whole scale, .77 for the I am Ok sub scale. For the sub scale I am not Ok, the result is .69, .76 for the You are OK subscale, and .70 for the You are not OK subscale.During the reliability studies, the scale was applied to 370 university students at Erzurum Atatürk University. To determine the adequacy of the samples, the Kasier-Mayer-Olkin (KMO) value was observed and the result was .89. The coefficient of the internal consistency of the items was (a) .84. Principal components factor analysis was also used for the construct validity and the data were subjected to varimax axis convert.Results showed that the scale displayed similar distribution to the original scale. The confirmatory factor analysis findings showed the following results (960.94) sd (195) (χ 2/sd= 4.92), RMSEA (.07) RMR (.08) SRMR (.07) GFI (.97) AGFI (.96) CFI (97). These findings verifies the correspondance of the original scale's structure. Therefore, it can be said that this scale can be appropriately used in the studies in Turkey to measure life positions.
