Abstract: Objective The study's objective was to evaluate the psychometric properties of the Turkish version of the smoking rationalization scale. Methods The methodological study included 261 participants who met the inclusion criteria. Data was gathered using the Social-demographics Questionnaire and the Smoking Rationalization Scale. Language and content validity, confirmatory factor analysis, Cronbach's Alpha coefficient, item-total score correlation, split-half reliability analysis, floor and ceiling effects, and test-retest reliability methods were used in the scale's validity-reliability analysis. Results The SRS has six factors, according to the results of exploratory factor analysis. Its six-factor structure was confirmed using confirmatory factor analysis. The Cronbach's coefficients were determined to be 0.91 for the whole scale and between 0.56 and 0.82 for the subscales. Furthermore, item-total correlations and test-retest analysis of the scale showed a high correlation. Conclusions It was determined that the Turkish version of the smoking rationalization scale is a valid and reliable measurement tool for determining attitudes and beliefs about rationalizing smoking.
