Abstract
This study aims to determine the Turkish validity and reliability of the Cardiff Fertility Knowledge Scale. This methodological research was conducted between April and December 2022 with 302 married individuals at a health center in Kocaeli province, Turkey. Research data were collected using a Personal Information Form and the Cardiff Fertility Knowledge Scale. Content construct and face validity, item analysis, factor analysis, and internal consistency were used to evaluate the data. The content validity index of the scale was found to be 0.97, and the Cronbach's alpha coefficient for the Turkish version was 0.68. The total scores of the top 27% group were significantly higher than the scores of the bottom 27% group (p < 0.01). As a result of the analyses, the final version of the scale consisted of 11 items and had a single factor structure, explaining 44.45% of the scale's variance. The results of the study demonstrate that the Turkish version of the Cardiff Fertility Knowledge Scale is a valid and reliable measurement tool that can be used to assess individuals' fertility knowledge.
