Özet:

 Recently, psychology and religious studies have emphasized that spirituality and values are important protective factors in disasters such as illness, natural disasters and war. However, the comprehensive ethical values classification also stands out with its emphasis on intrinsic values and spirituality-based approach. This study aims to develop an inner spiritual values scale using the comprehensive ethical values classification. For this purpose, a literature review was conducted and a semi-structured form was developed by the researchers. An item pool was created as a result of the answers obtained from adolescents and young people and the literature review. The created item pool was presented to the opinions of academicians who are experts in their field and Turkish language experts. As a result of the feedback, the pilot form was applied to 600 adolescents and young people. After the application, exploratory factor analysis was conducted and a structure with 3 factors and 28 items emerged for the scale. In order to confirm the structure that emerged in the exploratory factor analysis, the fit indices were examined after the confirmatory factor analysis and the 3-factor 28-item structure of the scale was confirmed. The reliability of the scale was then tested using internal consistency analyses, test split analysis, composite reliability, and test-retest methods, and all methods showed that the scale was reliable. Satisfaction with Life Scale was used for the criterion-related validity of the scale and as a result of the analysis, it was seen that the inner spiritual values scale provided criterion-related validity. According to the results, the contribution of the scale to future research was discussed and various suggestions were made to researchers and field workers regarding the scale Spirituality-Based Inner Values.

 Psikoloji ve din bilimleri eksenindeki çalışmalar genel ruh sağlığı yanında hastalık, doğal afet ve savaş gibi felaketlerde maneviyat ve değerlerin önemli koruyucu faktörler olduğunu vurgulamaktadır. Değerlerin içeriğine yönelik birçok sınıflamayı dahil etmesi yönünden kapsamlı etik değerler sınıflandırması içsel değerlere yaptığı vurgu ve maneviyat temelli yaklaşımıyla öne çıkmaktadır. Bu çalışma, kapsamlı etik değerler sınıflamasını temel alarak içsel manevi değerler ölçeği geliştirmeyi amaçlamaktadır. Bu amaçla öncelikle alan yazın taraması yapılmış ve araştırmacılar tarafından yarı yapılandırılmış bir form geliştirilmiştir. Geliştirilen form ile ergen ve gençler ile öğretmen ve anne-babalardan elde edilen cevaplar ve alan yazın taraması sonucunda madde havuzu oluşturulmuştur. Oluşturulan madde havuzu alanında uzman akademisyenlerin ve Türk dili uzmanı olan akademisyenlerin görüşüne sunulmuştur. Geri dönütler sonucunda pilot form 600 ergen ve genç bireye uygulanmıştır. Uygulama sonrasında açımlayıcı faktör analizi yapılmış ve ölçek için 3 faktörlü, 28 maddeli bir yapı ortaya çıkmıştır. Açımlayıcı faktör analizinde ortay çıkan yapı üzerinde gerçekleştirilen doğrulayıcı faktör analizi sonrasında uyum indeksleri incelenmiş ve ölçeğin 3 faktörlü 28 maddelik yapısı doğrulanmıştır. Sonrasında iç tutarlık analizleri, test yarılama analizi, kompozit güvenirlik, test tekrar test yöntemleri kullanılarak ölçeğin güvenirliği test edilmiş ve bütün yöntemlerle ölçeğin güvenilir olduğu görülmüştür. Ölçeği ölçüt bağıntılı geçerliği için Yaşam Doyumu Ölçeği kullanılmış ve yapılan analizler sonucunda içsel manevi değerler ölçeğinin ölçüt bağıntılı geçerliği sağladığı görülmüştür. Ulaşılan sonuçlara göre ölçeğin gelecekteki araştırmalara katkısı tartışılmış ve araştırmacılar ile saha çalışanlarına içsel manevi değerler ölçeği ile ilgili çeşitli önerilerde bulunulmuştur.
