Abstract
The aim of the present study was to investigate the validity and reliability of the Turkish version of Work-Related Rumination Scale (T-WRRS). The study was conducted sampling 582 white-collar workers from various fields. In order to determine the construct validity, confirmatory factor analysis was conducted. Additionally, Cronbach Alpha values as an indicator of internal consistency and item-total correlations were utilized for reliability analysis. The results yielded that the Turkish version of WRRS is a reliable scale with three-factor, and it can be used to measure work-related rumination among Turkish workers.
