Psychometric Properties of the Adolescent and Adult Time Inventory–Turkish: Evidence From Gifted and Talented Adolescents (Stage 1, 11:50 AM)

• In Event: e-Lightning Ed-Talk Session 3 - Stage 1

Abstract

This study examined the psychometric properties of the Turkish version of the Adolescent and Adult Time Inventory (AATI) among gifted and talented adolescents (N = 194). The AATI assesses multiple dimensions of time perspective, including attitudes, frequency, relation, and orientation. Confirmatory factor analysis supported the six-factor structure of the Time Attitudes Scale (TAS), and internal consistency values were strong (α = .79–.91), improving on previous Turkish adaptations. Convergent validity was established through associations with psychosocial constructs such as hope, depressive symptoms, identity exploration, and well-being. Findings highlight the utility of AATI–Turkish for research and practice with Turkish-speaking adolescents and support its cross-cultural relevance as a screening tool in educational and psychological contexts.
