| dc.description.abstract | This study aimed to assess the validity and reliability of the Turkish version of the Feeling Good, Living Life (FGLL) scale. A total of 177 children from two secondary schools in Istanbul participated. Data were collected using the Descriptive Characteristics Form, the FGLL, and the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory for Children (STAIC). The Turkish FGLL was evaluated for language and content validity, construct validity, and reliability. Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) showed acceptable fit indices for both the Feeling Good (FG) (chi 2/df = 2.04, GFI = 0.90, CFI = 0.90) and the Living Life (LL) parts (chi 2/df = 1.62, GFI = 0.90, CFI = 0.95). Cronbach's alpha coefficients were 0.828 for the FG part and 0.851 for the LL part. A negative correlation was found between STAIC and FGLL scores. The Turkish FGLL is a valid and reliable tool for assessing spiritual well-being in children aged 9 to 12 years. | |
