This research validates the Turkish Flow-Clutch Scale in exercisers, suggesting it effectively measures flow experiences and states.
The purpose of this study was to examine the validity and reliability of the Turkish version of the Flow-Clutch Scale (FCS) within the framework of the Integrated Model of Flow and Clutch States. Two hundred and thirty-five participants (Mage = 21.77 years, SDage = 6.96), including 128 athletes and 107 exercisers, voluntarily participated in this study. The FCS, Short Flow State Scale-2, and State-Trait Anxiety Inventory were administered along with a demographic information form. The psychometric properties of the FCS were evaluated using confirmatory factor analysis, internal consistency, and tests of convergent and discriminant validity. The findings supported a four-factor model with acceptable fit indices and adequate internal consistency. Overall, the results indicate that the Turkish version of the Flow-Clutch Scale (FCS) is a valid and reliable tool for measuring flow and clutch experiences in exercise contexts.
