The purpose of the study was to examine the validity and reliability of Social Emotional Well Being and Resilience Scale (PERIK) to measure social-emotional well-being and resilience in Turkish preschool children. Two independent samples of four to six year children were used. Sample 1 served as the calibration sample to explore the most appropriate structure of the PERIK-T (227 children). Sample 2 served as the validation sample (227 children). A confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) was conducted to test the stability of the original factor structure of the six-factor PERIK. Concluding that 36 item PERIK did not fit the data obtained from Turkish sample, an exploratory factor analysis (EFA) was conducted to further explore the factor structure of the PERIK that better represented the sample data. The results of EFA suggested a six-factor 30 item solution. This 30 item model was subsequently cross-validated with the second sample (n = 227). The results of the second CFA showed a good fit to the data. Scale scores showed a relatively high internal consistency and item-total correlations ranging from 0.47 to 0.76. To provide evidence for criterion-related validity of the PERIK, reported differences or relations in terms of gender and age are referenced.
