Özet
Background and Objective: This study was carried out as a validity and reliability study of the Turkish version of the Diabetes Fatalism Scale (DFS) and to investigate its psychometric properties in the Turkish society with type 2 diabetes patients. Methods: Exploratory factor analysis was conducted to assess the scale's factor structure. Confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) was performed to validate the best fit model. Results: The explanatory factor analysis and CFA results confirmed the three-factor structure of the scale. The Cronbach's alpha, item-total correlation and test-retest analyses showed high reliability. Conclusion: The results showed that DFS is a valid and reliable tool for evaluating fatalism in diabetic patients from a Turkish population.
