Material and Method: This study is a methodological design and was conducted with a total of 92 children attending a private rehabilitation center and a special subclass and mainstreaming class of a public school. Results: The internal consistency coefficient Cronbach Alpha of the Turkish version of the scale was 0.868, the item content validity indices CVI were between 0.92-1.00 and the total item CVI value was 0.96. The test-retest values of the scale were statistically significant and positive r0.912; p0.01. The scale was found to have high internal consistency and content validity. Conclusion: As a result of the analysis of the psychometric and psycholinguistic properties of the KnowledgeSkills of Self-Protection from Sexual Abuse Scale for Children with Intellectual Disabilities, which evaluates the knowledge and skills of children with intellectual disabilities to protect themselves from sexual abuse, it was determined that it is a scale that fits Turkish culture.
