摘要：AbstractThe purpose of the present study is testing the validity and reliability of Turkish adaptation of Referee Decision Scale developed by Andrew et. al. (2006). Referee decision scale was developed in order to describe the accuracy-error relations between themes of opinion, concentration, and control that affect the ideal decision-making processes of referees; and crowd factor, player reaction and environmental factors; and to measure the referees’ sense of satisfaction related to their decisions. The scale consists of 9 items and a single factor on a 5-level likert type grading. Each item is graded on a scale from (0)= Never to (4)=Always. The present research is conducted on 96 referees serving in various division levels in the province of Mugla. The scale's conformity to Turkish is tested via confirmatory factor analysis. Cronbach alpha value of the scale was calculated as 0.85. Findings of the present research revealed that; Turkish adaptation of the scale is able to describe the decision satisfaction levels of referees serving in Turkey.
