    THE VALIDITY AND RELIABILITY OF THE TURKISH VERSION OF THE GAME ADDICTION SCALE
    (AAB College, 2025-07-11) Basha, Ertan
    The aim of this study is to examine validity and reliability of the Turkish version of the Game Addiction Scale (Lemmens, Valkenburg, & Peter, 2009). The research was conducted on 330 high school students. Of the participants, 193 were female, 137 were male. The results of confirmatory factor analysis indicated that the 7 items loaded on one factor. The corrected item-total correlations ranged from .66 to .82. Cronbach alpha internal consistency reliability coefficient was .91. These results demonstrated that this scale is a valid and reliable instrument.

    Depression, Anxiety and Stress Scale (DASS): The Study of Validity and Reliability
    (AAB College, 2025-07-10) Basha, Ertan
    The purpose of this study is to examine validity and reliability of the Albanian version of the Depression, Anxiety and Stress Scale (DASS), which is developed by Lovibond and Lovibond (1995). The sample of this study is consisted of 555 subjects who were living in Kosovo. The results of confirmatory factor analysis indicated 42 items loaded on three factors (Depression, Anxiety and Stress). As it is shown in the original form, the scale is occurred by three factors. Factor’s coefficients were as follows: for the depression .25 to .61, for anxiety .30 to .53 and for stress .31 to .51 for overall scale. Compliance validation points of DASS were respectively found between .85 and .81 and, 80. Item total correlations were .25 to .61. Findings demonstrated that Albanian version of DASS has similarity with other researches for reliability and validity scores.

    Adaptation, validity and reliability study of the “Internet Addiction Scale for Adolescents” into Albanian
    (AAB College, 2025-07-10) Basha, Ertan; Telaku, Naim; Mustafa, Armen
    The aim of this study was to verify the dimensions of Internet addiction in Albanian. This study employed “Internet Addiction Scale for Adolescents” to determine internet addiction. The verification of language equivalence, the scale form was administered to 164 university students studying at AAB College Faculty of Psychology and 61 High School students studying at the British School of Kosovo (altogether 245). In addition, the Cronbach Alpha internal srability coefficient was found to be .828. It was observed that the factor load values of the scale items varied between .56 and .72. The Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin coefficient (KMO) was 0.82 and the Bartlett x2 Sphericity value was 605,874 (p<.000). In confirmatory factor analysis, it was seen that the one-dimensional structure of the scale provided a good fit. [x2=63.168, df=26, x2/df=2.42 RMSEA=.077, RMR=.069, S-RMR=.049, GFI=.95, AGFI=.91, CFI=.94, NNFI=.90, IFI=.94]. The findings obtained as a result of the validity factor analysis and the reliability of the scale show that the Albanian scale is valid and reliable.
