TY - JOUR TI - The Validity and Reliability of Propensity to Trust Scale AB - In this study, it is aimed to assess the validity and reliability of propensity to trust scale developed byFrazier, Johnson, & Fainshmidt (2013) by adapting to Turkish. In this regard, explanatory factor analysis, confirmatory factor analysis, item analysis, internal consistency coefficients, and validity analysesare conducted with the data obtained from two different samples comprised of students (n = 287) andemployees (n = 323) in Turkey. According to this, explanatory factor analysis results showed singlefactor consrtuct of the scale. Moreover, confirmatory factor analysis findings also revelaed single factorconstruct of this scale (χ/sd = 1.345; p = .261; CFI = .999; TLI = .998; IFI = .999; RMSEA = .033;SRMR= .008). Reliability analyses results showed Alpha and Omega coefficients indicate that the scaleis reliable. Regarding the validity of the scale discriminant validity, convergent validity, and criterionrelated validity related assessments revealed the validity of the scale. The results of explanatory factoranalysis, confirmatory factor analysis, validity, and reliability analyses findings revealed that Turkishversion of propensity to trust scale is a valid and reliable instrument to use in studies in Turkey.
