The aim of this study was to develop the scale to assess irrational beliefs of parents and test its psychometric properties. The research sample was comprised of parents whose children were attending primary schools. The results from the factor analysis were used to determine two factors in the scale: Expectations and Perfectionism. To examine the validity of the scale, the correlations between the scores on the Expectations sub-scale and the Dysfonctional Attitute Scale (DAS) (.14), the Irrational Belief Scale-Short Form (IBS-S) (.52), and the Beck Depresion Inventory (BDI) (.30) were assessed. The perfectionism sub-scale was correlated with DAS (.27), IBS-S (.54), BDI (.19) . The test-retest correlations were .84 for Expectations sub-scale and .80 for Perfectionism sub-scale. Cronbach Alpha internal consistency coefficient were .89 for Expectations sub-scale and .86 for Perfectionism sub-scale.
