To this end, a scale wasdeveloped and its reliability and validity were measured through a number ofmeasures. The internal consistency was used to evaluate the reliability of the scalewhereas its validity was analyzed by a factor analysis. Regarding exploratory factoranalysis, the result of the KMO test was .90 and Bartlett test χ2 statistic was3055.306 (p < .001). Path coefficients of the items varied between .55 and .89 andCronbach’s Alpha (α = .76) coefficients indicated that the data obtained from thescale (QOL-GSS) was reliable. Results overall indicated that COVID-19 affectedgifted students’ quality of life slightly in all dimensions of QOL-GSS.
