Abstract (2. Language): 
The aim of this study is to examine validity and reliability of the Turkish version of the Self-Focused Attention Scale (Kiropulos & Klimidis, 2006). The sample of this study consisted of 323 undergraduate students. The results of confirmatory factor analysis indicated that the 17 items and four-dimensional self-focused attention model (public body consciousness, private self-consciousness, public self-consciousness, private body consciousness) was well fit (x²= 273.94, df= 105, RMSEA= .069, GFI= .91, AGFI= .87, and SRMR= .079). The internal consistency reliability coefficients of the scale were .67, .57, .68, .63 for four subscales, respectively.
