Abstract
The aim of this study is to adapt the Leisure Boredom Scale(LBS), that was developed by Iso-Ahola ve Weissinger (1990), into Turkish language and to assess the reliability and validity among high school students. The participants consisted of 469 students from 9th to 12th grades of high schools in İzmir city center. Structure of the LBS was examined employing a confirmatory factor analysis and exploratory factor analysis. EFA results showed that a constract with 12 items and two factors, namely “Competence” and “Motivation” was achieved. Also CFA results supported this structure. As a part of discriminant validity study, between the two subdimensions of Leisure Boredom Scale and the six subdimensions of Leisure Satisfaction Scale were found significantly negative correlations. Moreover, Cronbach alpha correlations of scale and subscales proved that the LBS is a reliable instrument.
