The study group comprised 294 children aged 48-72 months. It was determined that the Content Validity Index of the Preschool Emotion Regulation Scale developed was 0.67, the item-total correlation values were appropriate, and that the scale provides the criteria required to prove validity. The total Cronbach Alpha value was found to be 0.93. There was a significant difference between the lower and upper groups for all items of the scale, which provided item discrimination. It was determined that there is a high-level, positive, and significant relationship between test-retest scores of the scale, which provides the strength of agreement between raters. Accordingly, the Preschool Emotion Regulation Scale is a valid and reliable measurement tool.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessValidity and reliability study of the Preschool Emotion Regulation ScaleArticle551252611273225
