Özet:

 Objectives: The aim of this study was to adapt the Occupational Health Literacy Scale into Turkish. Method: This methodological cross-sectional study was conducted with the participation of 631 people working in different sectors between January and July 2024. Personal information form and Occupational health literacy scale were used to collect data. The validity of the scale was evaluated with content validity, construct validity and convergent-divergent validity. Confirmatory factor analysis was performed in multiple groups between genders to determine measurement invariance. For reliability, cronbach alpha, corrected item-total correlation and composite reliability were analysed. Results: The content validity index was found to be above 0.78 for all items. Confirmatory factor analysis confirmed the original two-factor structure. Goodness-of-fit index values were found to be in the acceptable and excellent range. Cross-gender measurement invariance results were satisfactory. The cronbach alpha coefficient of the scale was found to be 0.87. Conclusion: The Turkish version of the occupational health literacy scale was found to be a valid and reliable measurement tool.

 Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı İş Sağlığı Okuryazarlığı Ölçeğini Türkçeye uyarlamaktır. Metod: Metodolojik olarak kesitsel nitelikte olan bu çalışma Ocak-Temmuz 2024 tarihleri arasında farklı sektörlerde çalışan 631 kişinin katılımıyla gerçekleştirilmiştir. Veri toplamak için kişisel bilgi formu ve İş sağlığı okuryazarlığı ölçeği kullanılmıştır. Ölçeğin geçerliliği kapsam geçerliliği, yapı geçerliliği ve yakınsak-ıraksak geçerlilik ile değerlendirilmiştir. Ölçüm değişmezliğini belirlemek için cinsiyetler arasında çoklu gruplarda doğrulayıcı faktör analizi yapılmıştır. Güvenilirlik için cronbach alpha, düzeltilmiş madde toplam korelasyonu ve bileşik güvenilirlik analiz edilmiştir. Bulgular: Kapsam geçerlilik indeksi tüm maddelerde 0.78in üzerinde olduğu bulunmuştur. Doğrulayıcı faktör analizi orijinal iki faktörlü yapıyı doğrulamıştır. Uyum iyiliği indeks değerleri kabul edilebilir ve mükemmel aralıkta bulunmuştur. Cinsiyetler arası ölçüm değişmezliği sonuçları tatmin edicidir. Ölçeğin cronbach alpha katsayısı 0.87 olarak bulunmuştur. Sonuç: İş sağlığı okuryazarlığı ölçeğinin Türkçe versiyonu geçerli ve güvenilir bir ölçüm aracı olarak bulunmuştur.
