Study of Scale Development of Discipline Management Practices in Organizations

Summary/Abstract: The aim of this research is to develop a valid and reliable measurement tool to measure discipline management practices in organizations. As a result of the content analysis and literature review of the data obtained from semi-structured interviews conducted with senior managers of 22 enterprises operating in the Karaman Organized Industrial Zone, a 107-item proposal pool was created. Expert opinions were consulted for appearance validity and scope validity for the items and the last scale was applied to 500 employees in different sectors after the pilot study. As a result of the exploratory factor analysis, a model consisting of 33 items and 3 factors (preventive discipline practices, constructive discipline practices, corrective discipline practices), whose construct validity was ensured, emerged and the total variance explained was found to be 53.83%. Confirmatory factor analysis was performed for structure, and acceptable goodness of fit index values were found after the corrections. The cronbach's alpha coefficient values of the scale were found to be reliable. In the research, a reliable and valid scale that can be used to determine disciplinary management practices in organizations was obtained, and the English and Turkish versions of the obtained scale were presented.
