The aim of this study is to adapt the ‘Social Motivation Questionnaire’ into Turkish and to ensure its validity and reliability.The comprehensibility of the questionnaire, whose language compatibility was ensured in this way, in Turkish culture was examined on 18 participants with the 'Comprehensibility Evaluation Form'.

It was determined that the Turkish version of the questionnaire provided content validity, with the calculated I-CVI values in the range of 0.78-1.00 and the S-CVI value being 0.93. One of the items (Item 8) of the 'emotion regulator' sub-dimension of the questionnaire was removed from the Turkish version of the questionnaire because it decreased the Cronbach's alpha coefficient. Other one (Item 2) was removed from the Turkish version of the questionnaire because overlapping by showing a shift to both sub-dimensions. Thus, it was seen that the Turkish version of the 6-item and 2 sub-dimension questionnaire with a Cronbach Alpha value of 0.693 provided the confirmatory factor analysis goodness-of-fit values.
