Summary/Abstract: In this study, it is aimed to develop a scale for economic justice and to examine its validity and reliability. A total of 838 people participated in this study. The sample group consisted of unemployed, disabled (who are able to work), retired employees, the most disadvantaged people, minimum wage earners and uninsured workers living in different cities in Turkey. SPSS 21 and AMOS 22 programs were applied. Items with a value below 0.50 were not evaluated in the study. A three-factor structure and a 26-item scale were revealed. The correlation number of the candidate scale with the similar scale was 0.902 (p < 0.001). The Cronbach coefficient is 0.938. The test-retest correlation parameter was r = 0.802 (p < 0.001). In summary, the economic justice scale has a good fit criterion, a valid and reliable assessment tool.
