Abstract

Turnover intention has been used as dependent variable in many studies. Since most of the items that were developed in other cultural contexts are similar to each other and they reflect the cultural issues related to the cultural contexts, an examination of turnover intention variable in our cultural context is required. So, in this study a scale of ?Turnover Intention? was developed to determine the workers? intention to leave the job. The scale contains 8 items and it is a 5-point Likert type of scale ranging from 1 ?I completely agree? to 5 ?I totally disagree?. The confirmatory and exploratory factor analysis were performed for validity analysis of the data collected from 152 participants. As a result of exploratory factor analysis, two main dimensions (factors) were emerged and these two dimensions were named as ?the willingness to leave the job? and ?the difficulties and worries that will be encountered when leaving the job?. As a result of confirmatory factor analysis, goodness of fit indices coincides with the predicted two-factor structure of the scale. For reliability analysis, internal consistency coefficiency were performed and it was found as 0.88. According to the result of the statistical analysis, the scale was found to be valid and reliable.
