In this study, the Perceptual Skills Scale (PSS) was developed to determine the sensory, cognitive and emotional perception skills of primary school children. For the validity and reliability study of the scale, data were collected between April and May 2019 from seven primary schools that differ in socioeconomic terms in a city center in North-Western Turkey; and a total of 643 parents were reached. Within the scope of the validity study of the PSS, content (scope) validity and structure validity analyses were performed. The Hambleton method was used for content (scope) validity, as well as referring to expert opinions. The construct validity of the scale was examined by looking at the confirmatory factor analysis and the item-total correlations. It was determined that item-total test correlations varied between 0.181 and 0.597. In the confirmatory factor analysis, comparative fit index (CFI) was found as 0.99; goodness of fit index (GFI) as 0.89; normed fit index (NFI) as 0.91; and relative fit index (RFI) as 0.90. Cronbach Alpha analysis was performed for the reliability of the scale and it was determined that the Cronbach Alpha coefficients varied between 0.730 and 0.844. As a result of the validity-reliability analysis, it was seen that the scale is valid and reliable.
