Özet

The purpose of this paper is to adapt the Commitment Scale to Turkish. Four studies were conducted. for the validity and reliability of the scale. Turkish and English versions of the Commitment Scale were administered for two-week periods and it was made sure that the translated version was true to the original. The sample of the study consisted of married couples. Confirmatory factor analysis was conducted in the paper and it was found that the model had acceptable goodness of fit indices. Total item analyses and Cronbach alpha value indicated that the scale could be used on the Turkish sample. In the criterion-referenced validity study, the scale was found to be significantly correlated with the Relationship Assessment Scale Dyadic Adjustment Scale, Marital Adjustment Scale, Future Time Orientation in Romantic Relationships Scale and The Heartland Forgiveness Scale. The reliability coefficient scores revealed acceptable results. In conclusion, validity and reliability studies demonstrated that the Commitment Scale was applicable to the Turkish sample.
