Impact of Music in Sportive Activities Scale (IMSAS): Validity and Reliability Assessment
Karayol, Metin; Turhan, Muhammed Ozkan
African Educational Research Journal, v8 n2 p297-304 Jun 2020
The aim of this study was to develop a tool in order to measure the impact of music on the sportive activities. The study group 170 professional athletes, who are actively playing in the municipal sport club in Istanbul in basketball, physically disabled (swimming), wrestling, judo, karate, taekwondo, volleyball, swimming, and fitness branches. Thus, it was assumed that the sample represented the population. The construct validity of the scale was tested through the exploratory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis. The reliability of the scale was measured through the Cronbach Alpha and test-retest method. The distinctiveness of the scale was tested over the difference between the min 27% and max 27%. Correlation analysis was conducted among the scale factors. In order to calculate the reliability of the 18 items in the Impact of Music on Sportive Activities Scale, the "Cronbach Alpha", which is the internal consistency coefficient, was calculated. The general reliability of the scale was determined to be very high, alpha=0.885. It was determined that the analysis results, confirmatory factor analysis, and compliance statistics demonstrated a good fit, and as a conclusion of the correlation analysis, positive correlations were detected between the Scale sub-dimensions and overall scores (p < 0.05).
