The aim of this study is to adapt the scale developed by Kikushi and Sakai (2009) to identify the motivation barriers of Japanese students who learn English, and to determine the psychometric properties of the scale. Research’s study group consisted of 237 students enrolled in Aydın University TOMER in the academic year of 2017-2018. As result of the analyses conducted, scale reliability was deduced as Cronbach Alpha = 0.861. As result of the factor analysis, variables were grouped under 4 factors with a total explained variance of 49.61%. Cronbach Alpha values with respect to these factors were found as 0.77; 0.74; 0.75; and 0.72, respectively. In light of these findings, it was concluded that Motivation Obstacles Survey for Learning Turkish as a Foreign Language is a valid and reliable scaling tool that could be used by researchers and teachers in the field of teaching Turkish as a foreign language.
