The present study aims to adapt the Perception of Career-Related Parental Support Scale (PCRPSS) into Turkish and investigate its psychometric properties on adolescents. The sample consisted of 351 adolescents (196 girls, 144 boys, and 11 participants who do not state any gender) studying in secondary and high schools. The confirmatory factor analysis, carried out within the scope of the construct validity of the PCRPSS, confirmed the original three-factor structures as Support, Interference, and Lack of Engagement. For concurrent validity, significant relationships were found between the subscales of the PCRPSS and Family Influence Scale (FIS). According to these results, FIS positively correlated with Support and Interference Subscales and negatively correlated with the Lack of Engagement subscale. Cronbach's Alpha (α) and McDonald's Omega (ω) internal consistency coefficients of scale were both found .86 for the Support subscale, .84 for the Interference subscale, and .83 for the Lack of Engagement subscale. In conclusion, the results indicated that the PCRPSS could be considered as a valid and reliable tool to evaluate middle school and high school students’ perceptions of their parents’ career-related behaviors.
