Resum

The purpose of this study is to develop the Scale of Factors Motivating Individuals to Choose Entertainment Places and Have Fun (BEMEFÖ), Validity and Reliability for the Turkish Population. This descriptive study consists of individuals aged 18 and over who come to Antalya's Kaleiçi district for having entertainment. The locations were selected through convenience sampling, and each location was visited an average of four times on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays. The survey was conducted face-to-face with individuals who were present at each location and volunteered to participate. A total of 340 surveys were administered in the study. The survey used to collect data in the study consists of two sections. The first section includes demographic information, while the second section includes items related to factors that motivate individuals to have fun. The factors that motivate individuals to have fun and to choose entertainment places were factored into 10 factors. These are as follows: These are "Venue and Product Quality", "Attractiveness of the Venue", "Socialization", "Calming Down/Relaxation", "Attention-Gathering/Being Noticed", "Novelty Seeking", "Nostalgia", "Distancing Oneself from Others", "Celebration" and "Quality of the Venue's Sound and Music System." The Cronbach's Alpha coefficient for the BEMEFÖ was found to be 0.865, and the scale explained 69.58% of the variance. It can be concluded that the BEMEFÖ is sufficient to explain the factors that motivate individuals to have fun for the Turkish population.
