The Child Perceptions Questionnaire (CPQ) is a widely used reliable measurement that provides for practitioners to assess child's current emotional, social, and functional well-being. The aim of the present study was to develop a translated version of CPQ8-10 into Turkish language and evaluate its reliability, validity, and reproducibility.

The CPQ8-10 was translated into Turkish as recommended in the literature. The intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) was used for the test-retest reliability. The internal consistency was evaluated using Cronbach's alpha Coefficient. Construct validity and discriminant validity were calculated, exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) were employed.

• being mentally and physically sufficient to complete the questionnaire,
