Özet

Objective: The Snell-Papini Sexuality Scale was designed to assess sexual-esteem, sexual-depression and sexual-obsession. The purpose of the present study was to determine the psychometric properties of the Turkish version of the Snell-Papini Sexuality Scale. Method: Sample of the study included of 243 undergraduates at the Namik Kemal University, Tekirdag. All participants completed the The Turkish version of the Snell-Papini Sexuality Scale, Symptom Checklist-90-Revised (SCL-90-R), and sociodemographic history form. As for the reliability analyses, item total correlations and Chronbach ? coefficients were calculated for each of the subscales and the total scale. Results: Item total correlations showed that only 20 items of original scale correlations coefficients were higher than 0.25. Ten items had lower internal consistency.When these ten items was extracted from the Turkish version of the scale, the Cronbach alpha coefficients ranged between 0.81 and .92. In the sample described above, scores on the sexual-depression subscales of the Turkish version of the Snell-Papini Sexuality were positively correlated with "depression" subscale of SCL-90-R(r=0.23, p<0.05). Conclusions: The results indicated that twenty-item Snell-Papini Sexuality Scale subscales had acceptable consistency reliability. In spite of some limitations, the Turkish version of the Snell-Papini Sexuality Scale is a reliable and valid tool that could be used to asses sexual-esteem, sexual-depression and sexual-obsession in related resarch.
