dc.description.abstractPurpose: The purpose of this study is to examine the reliability and validity of Turkish form of Perception of Pregnancy Risk Scale that was developed by Heaman ve Gupton. Materials and Methods: The Turkish scale was administered to 349 pregnant women (164 risky and 185 healthy) who were admitted to two hospitals in the city center between September 2018 and January 2019. The sample of the study consisted of women who were hospitalized in clinics with the diagnosis of risky pregnancy and women who applied to outpatient clinic for routine pregnancy follow-up. Personal Information Form and Turkish form of Perception of Pregnancy Risk were applied to pregnant women by interviewing face to face. Results: The mean age of the pregnant women was 27.65 +/- 6.03. 47% of the pregnants were diagnosed as risky pregnancy in their current pregnancy. 52.8% of risky pregnants have a diagnosis of preterm birth risk. As a result of item analysis, the total item correlations of the scale were found to be between r = 0.47 and 0.67. Cronbach Alpha coefficient was found 0.84. Spearman-Brown reliability coefficient was 0.79; Guttman Split-Half 0.79. Two factors consisting of 9 items, factor load is between 0.40-0.67, explaining 63.479% of total variability and whose eigen value is over 1 were obtained in factor analysis done with oblimin rotation for construct validity. Factorial model of scales were found theoretically and statistically accepted compliance after confirmatory factor analysis. Conclusion: The scale can be used to assess the current risk perception of pregnant women towards herself and baby.
