Özet

The Flourishing Scale (FS) and the Scale of Positive and Negative Experience (SPANE) are scales that are newly introduced to evaluate well-being. The present study aims to assess the psychometric distinctive features of two scales by utilising two different Turkish samples: university students (n = 320), and employees (n = 180). Confirmatory factor analysis results demonstrate that a one-factor model of the FS and a two-factor model of the SPANE yield significant findings in those samples. Scales' factorial structures are valid for gender groups also they have good internal consistency. Concurrent validity, and discriminant validity with the use of several conceptually related and unrelated measures in two samples reveal satisfactory validity results for both the FS and the SPANE. The results of the present study show the utility of these scales in Turkish culture.
