For the validity and reliability of the Scale, content and language validity, item analysis (item difficulty index and item discrimination index), independent sample t-test (whether the item discrimination index differs), scale item-total score analysis and Kuder-Richardson Coefficient were used.Results: The Turkish adapted Scale has 18 items (knowledge-nine, attitude-five, practice-four). The Kuder-Richardson coefficient of the knowledge subscale was 0.85, the Kuder-Richardson coefficient of the attitude subscale was 0.79, and the Kuder-Richardson coefficient of the practice subscale was 0.92.Conclusions: Five items (knowledge= item 5; attitude= items 12, 13, 15; practice= item 19) were removed from the Turkish version of the scale and it was determined that the final scale can be used to determine the knowledge, attitude and practices related to urinary incontinence in pregnant women.

Ölçeğin geçerlik ve güvenirliği için; kapsam ve dil geçerliği, madde analizi (madde güçlük indeksi ve madde ayırt edicilik indeksi), bağımsız örneklem t-testi (madde ayırt edicilik indeksinin farklılık gösterip göstermediği), ölçek madde toplam puan analizi ve Kuder-Richardson Katsayısı kullanıldı.Bulgular: Türkçe'ye uyarlanan ölçek 18 maddeden (bilgi-dokuz, tutum-beş, davranış-dört) oluşmaktadır. Bilgi alt boyutunun Kuder-Richardson katsayısının 0.85, tutum alt boyutunun Kuder-Richardson katsayısının 0.79, davranış alt boyutunun Kuder-Richardson katsayısının ise 0.92 olduğu belirlendi.Sonuç: Ölçeğin Türkçe versiyonundan 5 madde çıkarıldı (bilgi= madde 5; tutum= madde 12, 13, 15; davranış= madde 19) ve elde edilen nihai ölçeğin gebelerde üriner inkontinans ile ilgili bilgi, tutum ve uygulamaların belirlenmesinde kullanılabileceği belirlendi.
