Özet:

 

This study aims to conduct validity and reliability studies of the Adaptation After COVID-19 Scale (AACS) to measure adults’ perceptions of adapting to life after COVID-19. The research study group consists of 2,042 adults who were accessed in July 2020 using convenience sampling. Half of this group was used in the exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and the other half in the confirmatory factor analysis (CFA). As a result of the two-step EFA analysis conducted in the validity studies, the scale was revealed to have 18 items with two factors explaining 50.37% of the total variance whose eigen values are greater than 1.00. However, because the difference between the first factor and the second factor is very large (42.68%), the scale has been evaluated as having one factor. In the second study group for the CFA after the modification procedures, the model showed good fit (  = 3.62; p <.001), and the other fit-indices of the model (RMSEA = .06; RMR = .05; NFI = .96; CFI = .97; GFI = .96; AGFI = .92) were found to be within acceptable ranges. In the reliability analyses, Cronbach’s alpha of internal consistency has been determined as α = .94, the Guttman variable as G = .97; Spearman-Brown predicted reliability as SB = .97; split-half reliability as r1-2 = .94; and test-retest reliability as r = .87. As a result, the study reveals the AACS to be acceptable as a valid and reliable scale.
