Abstract

The aim of this study is to adapt Career Engagement Scale (CES) developed by Hirschi, Freund, and Herrmann (2013) into Turkish. The data of the study were collected from 500 (64.7% female) university students. First of all, exploratory factor analysis was performed, and, unlike the original form, a two-factor structure with an eigenvalue greater than 1 and explaining 63.58% of the total variance was obtained. Confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) was performed to examine the validity of the two-factor structure obtained in Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA). The model fit indices (x2 = 73.924, df = 25 x2/df =2.95, p < .001; GFI = .97, AFGI = .97 CFI = .98, RMR = .038; TLI = .95, IFI = .98, NFI = .97 and RMSEA = .063 %90 [.046-.079]) obtained as a result of the analysis reveal that the two-factor structure of the measurement tool was confirmed on Turkish samples. The internal consistency coefficients of CES were calculated as .88 for the whole scale, .84 for the proactive career planning dimension, and .83 for the career proactive skill development dimension. To examine the similar scale validity of CES, the correlation coefficient between the Vocational Outcome Expectations Scale (VOES), the Career Decision Regret Scale (CDRS), and the Satisfaction With Life Scale (SWLS) was calculated. As a result of the analysis performed, a significant positive correlation was found between CES and VOES (r = .55; p < .01) and SWLS (r =.41, p < .01). However, a significant negative correlation was found between CES and CDRS (r = -.22; p < .05). All these results show that the two-factor structure of CES has been validated on a Turkish sample and it is a valid and reliable scale
