Abstract
The Affective Style Questionnaire was developed by Hofmann ve Kashdan (2010) to determine the affective styles of individuals. The purpose of this study is to adapt “The Affective Style Questionnaire” in Turkish culture and to perform a validity and reliability study on a sample consisting of university students who are in appearing adulthood period in Turkey. The study group consisted of 343 (192 female and 151 male) students attending to various departments of the Faculty of Education at Dokuz Eylül University. The validity of the questionnaire was determined by construct validity, concurrent validity and language validity studies. Confirmatory factor analysis was performed to test construct validity. The original three-factor structure of the questionnaire has been verified. As a result of concurrent validity it was found a positive and significant correlation between the scores of The Affective Style Questionnaire and The Emotion Regulation Questionnaire. Similary, in the language validity study, a positive and significant correlation was obtained between two applications. In addition, the internal consistency and test-retest reliability coefficients supported the reliability of the questionnaire. The results show that “The Affective Style Questionnaire” will be used as a valid and reliable measurement tool.
