Abstract

Although selfie behavior, which has become popular with smartphones, initially starts as a leisure activity, itcan turn into an addiction with time. This condition has been defined as a mental disorder by the AmericanPsychiatric Association and named as selfitis. Recently, interest in studies on the concept of selfie has increasedand a measurement tool called "Selfitis Disease Behavior" has been developed on this subject. In this study,we aimed to perform the validity and reliability analysis of the Turkish version of Selfitis Disease BehaviorScale (SDBS). As a result of the confirmatory factor analysis, it was found that the goodness of fit values ofthe Turkish version of the scale were acceptable and a good fit. It was also determined that the internal consistency coefficients of the scale were between 0.834 and 0.956. In addition, as a result of the correlation analysisperformed within the context validity, it was concluded that the SDBS had a positive relationship with socialmedia addiction and body perception scales. Therefore, the SDBS adapted into Turkish was demonstrated tobe a valid and reliable measurement tool for use in Turkish culture.
