Objective: The study was conducted to test the validity and reliability of the Turkish version of the “Pediatric Sleep Practices Questionnaire,” which was developed to evaluate the presence of factors that encourage or interfere with sleep. Methods: The sample of the study consisted of 320 children aged 8-17 years who had a physical disease for at least 7 days in the hospital and were treated. “Sociodemographic Characteristics Form” and “Pediatric Sleep Practices Questionnaire” were used to collect the research data. Results: The factor load values of the scale items range from 0.579 to 0.915. Fix index values were found as X2/SD 1.63, goodness of fit index 0.97, adjusted goodness of fit index 0.95, comparative fit index 0.91, root mean square error of approximation 0.061, root mean square residual 0.054, parsimony goodness fit index 0.52, and parsimony normed fit index 0.52. The scale consists of 9 items and 3 factors. Total Cronbach’s α coefficient of the scale was found as 0.694. Conclusions: “Pediatric Sleep Practices Questionnaire” is a valid and reliable scale. This scale can be used in both clinical and research settings to evaluate the presence of factors that encourage or interfere with sleep.
