Abstract :The aim in this study was to adapt the Parent and Teacher Form of the Social-Emotional Assets and Resiliency Scale for Preschool, developed by Ravitch (2013) to measure the resilience of preschool children, into Turkish and to test its validity and reliability. The validity and reliability of the Social-Emotional Assets and Resiliency Scale for Preschool were tested with 335 children observed by their parents and 276 children observed by their teachers, selected by random sampling from the population. Confirmatory factor analysis was performed with the software package LISREL v. 8.80. The analysis confirmed the three-factor structure of the scale. When the coherence indices of the scale were examined, it was seen that model data coherence was achieved. The internal consistency coefficient for the Self-Regulation/Social Competence subdimension was .86, for the Understanding/Expressing Emotions subdimension was .83, and for the Empathy/Responsibility subdimension was .83. The scale form consisting of three dimensions and 27 items was designed as a four-point Likert type. Based on the analyses performed, the Social-Emotional Assets and Resiliency Scale for Preschool is a valid and reliable measurement tool within the scope of parent and teacher evaluations of 60- to 72-month-old Turkish children with its three-dimensional and 27-item structure.Keywords : Psikolojik sağlamlık, Okul öncesi dönem, Ölçek uyarlama, Geçerlik, Güvenirlik
