| Abstrakt: | Background: Developed by Kreitzer et al. In 2009, the 'Brief Serenity Scale (BSS)' is a very high measure of validity and reliability of 22 items developed to determine serenity level of patients, and the community. Objectives: This study objected to transcribe the Brief Serenity Scale (BSS) to the Turkish language and to test its validity and reliability. Methods: The population of the methodological study consisted of 1500 participants in Ankara, the capital city of Turkey between December 2018 and May 2019. The sample, conversely, consisted of 220 participants, who agreed to participate in the study, from the present population. After the translation process of the scale; content and construct validity was carried out. The content validity index was computed after receiving the expert opinions. While the exploratory factor analysis was performed for the item analyses and internal consistency analysis were performed for the reliability. Results: The confirmatory factor analysis of the index values indicated that the model fit the data well. The internal consistency coefficients were 0.73 for the acceptance, 0.77 for inner peace, 0.71 for trust and 0.87 for the total score. The total correlation of the BSS items and the test-retest method showed good reliability levels. Conclusion: The results of the study shown that the Brief Serenity Scale had a validity and reliability and could be used in Turkey. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
