Abstract:

 The purpose of this current study is to develop the Eudaimonic Self-Regulation Scale, which measures the regulation of emotions, cognitions, behaviors and interpersonal relationships in order to reach the eudaimonia explained by ancient Greek philosopher Aristotle. Eudaimonic Self-Regulation Scale, Flourishing Scale, Mindful Attention and Awareness Scale, Personal Growth Initiative Scale, and the General Self-Efficacy Scale were used as measurement instruments. Participants of the study consisted of 1042 adults between the ages of 18 and 65, including 3 different sample groups. As a result of Exploratory Factor Analysis EFA of Eudaimonic Self Regulation Scale, a 10-factor structure model with 43 items, which explained  57.93 of the total variance was obtained. According to the Confirmatory Factor Analysis CFA results, the factor loadings ranged from .48 to .88. In addition, model fit indices were satisfactory χ22395.39; df815, χ2df2.93, RMSEA0.054, CFI0.97, IFI0.97, SRMR0.050. Cronbachs α values of sub-scales ranged from .75 to .89. In terms of convergent validity, eudaimonic self-regulation indicated significant correlations with psychological well-being, mindfulness, self-efficacy, and personal growth initiative. According to the results of test-retest reliability analysis, the intraclass correlation coefficients ranged from .82 to .94, Pearsons correlation coefficients were between .71 and .88. These results indicated that this scale was a valid and reliable instrument to assess eudaimonic self-regulation in the relevant researches.
