Studies which are made in order to improve the scale have indicated that occupational image scale is a valid and reliable scale made up of 31 items. Exploratory factor analysis that is made in order to determine the structure validity of the scale reveals that there are 3 sub-dimensions of the analysis. It explains the %20.87 of first factor total variance, %13.32 of the second factor total variance, and %5.11 of the third factor total variance. Three factors together have indicated % 49.58 of total variance. Cronbach Alpha coefficient reliability that is scored to determine the reliability of the scale is .91 for the first factor, .86 for the second factor, 85 for the third factor, .92 for the whole scale. These findings have shown that the reliability of the points which are obtained from occupational image scale is high.
