Özet:

 Selfishness and altruism are two concepts of paradoxical nature. Examination of these concepts according to individuals and cultures may provide a better understanding of the paradoxical structure in question. In this study, it was aimed to adapt the Healthy Selfishness and Pathological Altruism Scale Kaufman  Jauk, 2020 into Turkish and to conduct a validity and reliability study. Before proceeding to the main study, a validity and reliability study was conducted with a study group of 122 84 women  38 men adults to get preliminary information about the scale. The main study group of the research consisted of 570 392 female, 178 male adults. The two-factor structure of the scale was confirmed by confirmatory factor analysis. Healthy selfishness was positively related to self-love, self-efficacy, and altruism, whereas pathological altruism had a negative relationship with self-love, self-efficacy, and altruism. The Cronbachs alpha reliability coefficient was .95 for healthy selfishness and .91 for pathological altruism. As a result, all findings showed that the Healthy Selfishness Pathological Altruism Scale is a valid and reliable measurement tool.

 Bencillik ve özgecilik, paradoksal nitelikte iki kavramdır. Bu kavramların bireylere ve kültürlere göre incelenmesi söz konusu paradoksal yapının daha iyi anlaşılmasını sağlayabilir. Bu çalışmada Sağlıklı Bencillik ve Patolojik Özgecilik Ölçeğinin Kaufman ve Jauk, 2020 Türkçeye uyarlanması, geçerlik ve güvenirlik çalışması yapılması amaçlanmıştır. Ana çalışmaya geçilmeden önce ölçek hakkında ön bilgi almak amacıyla 122 84 kadın ve 38 erkek yetişkinden oluşan bir çalışma grubu ile geçerlik ve güvenirlik çalışması yapılmıştır. Araştırmanın ana çalışma grubunu 570 392 kadın, 178 erkek yetişkin oluşturmuştur. Ölçeğin iki faktörlü yapısı doğrulayıcı faktör analizi ile doğrulanmıştır. Sağlıklı bencillik, öz-sevgi, öz-yeterlik ve özgecilik ile pozitif ilişkiliyken, patolojik özgecilik öz-sevgi, öz-yeterlik ve özgecilik ile negatif bir ilişkiye sahipti. Cronbachs alpha güvenirlik katsayısı sağlıklı bencillik için .95 ve patolojik özgecilik için.91dir. Sonuç olarak, tüm bulgular Sağlıklı Bencillik Patolojik Özgecilik Ölçeğinin geçerli ve güvenilir bir ölçme aracı olduğunu göstermiştir.
