Abstract

The aim of this research is to make a validity and realibity study on university students through Career Decision Inventory which was developed for high school students by Çakır in 2003. In the ligt of this aim, with the data which has been obtained from the first group consisting of 402 university student exploratory factor analysis has been made in the first place and afterwards verifying factor analysis, it has been mad efor the same data. As a result of the analysis, it has been seen that the scale with 20 items has showen a 4 factor structure and these 4 factors can be interpreted. It has olsa been seen that the total variance is 54.295%. The cronbach alpha internal consistency parameter which has been obtained for the total of the scale has been calcualted as .90.When the coherence index of the model which was tested through DFA was examined, it was seen that the value of Ki Square (X2 = 393.21, df= 164, p=.00) had a value to good coherence. Considering the DFA result, the coherence indexes of the model are RMSEA = 0.059, GFI= .91, AGFI= 0.89, CFI=0.95, NNFI= 0.94, and SRMR= 0.057. Internal consistency reliability was assessed by computing cronbah’s alfa coefficients fort his administared to the 402 participants. The resulting coefficients were .87. The scale was administrated to 35 students from Mehmet Akif Ersoy Üniversity twice, in order to acquire test-re-test reliability. The time interval between the two administrations were twenty days. Test-re-test reliability coefficienty was .84. The findings which have been obtained show that the scale is valid and realiable. The obtained findings have been discussed in the content of related the field of literature.
