The measurement tool provides the opportunity to segment the "Sports Tourism” for those who provide services in the sports and tourism industry, the audience or the individuals who participate in a sports organization as a participant, what kind of effects the organization has on the destination and how much the people of the region support sports tourism. The research universe is Ankara. It consists of a total of 341 people selected by convenience sampling method in the provinces of Eskişehir and İzmir. Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) was used to test the structure of the scale. As a result of the analysis, it was revealed that the values of the scale were above the values given for compliance in the literature and were in a positive harmony. At the same time, the construct validity of the scale was tested. The Cronbach Alpha (0.874) internal consistency coefficient for the reliability of the scale, which consists of 6 dimensions and 22 questions, is above the values specified in the literature. According to the findings, it has been determined that the "Regional Perception and Support Scale for the Impact of Sports Tourism on the Society” is a valid and reliable measurement tool.Keywords : Geçerlik ve güvenirlik, Spor Turizmi, Etki, Toplum, Algı, Destek
