Abstract

Background: The study aims to adapt the validity and reliability of the Pregnancy Quality of Life Scale in Turkish society.

Methods: The study was carried out methodologically between April 2021 and April 2022 at Bayburt State Hospital, the only public hospital operating in the city center of Bayburt. In the study, a total of 355 pregnant women who met the research criteria and volunteered to participate were examined without selecting a sample. Validity and reliability analysis of language and content validity, explanatory and confirmatory factor analysis, and Cronbach- α coefficient were used.

Results: The factor structure of the Turkish form of the scale was consistent with the original form. As a result of the explanatory appropriate. The internal consistency coefficient was calculated as the total Cronbach-α coefficient of the scale was 0.628 for the first trimester, and 0.628 for the II. trimester 0.727 for trimester, III. Trimester it is 0.698 for a trimester.

Conclusion: As a result of the validity and reliability study, the Turkish version of the Pregnancy Quality of Life Scale can be used as a valid and reliable measurement tool.
