Summary/Abstract: In this study, the validity and reliability of the Fatherhood Scale, originally developed by Dick (2004) with 64 items and nine factors, were tested for Turkish children aged 14-18. In this context, language, content and structure validity and also reliability studies have been made. In order to obtain the data needed for the validity and reliability analysis of the scale, the language-validated form was administered to 409 children between the ages of 14-18 through online tools and social media, with the permission of their parents. In the analysis of the data, SPSS and AMOS programs were used, and test techniques such as KMO, Bartlett Sphericity tests, exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis, internal consistency coefficient (Cronbach Alpha) were used. The form of the scale, which was adapted for Turkish children between the ages of 14-18, consisted of 52 items and 6 factors. As a result of the statistical analysis made, it was determined that the Cronbach alpha internal consistency coefficient for the total of the items in the scale was .967 and between .702- .972 for the sub-dimensions of the scale.
