This study was conducted to adapt SALES (Students� Adaptive Learning Engagement in Science) scale, developed by Velayutham, Aldridge and Fraser (2011), into Turkish. The sample of this study was 472 (252 female 220 male) eight grade students from public schools of Ankara district. The scale was adapted into Turkish as an abbreviation of F�Y (Fen ��renimine Y�nelim). Exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) were performed to reveal the factor structure of the adapted scale. Furthermore, internal consistency reliability analysis was applied to determine consistency of F�Y scale. EFA and CFA analyses have exhibited some robust evidences for the validity of F�Y scale and accounted 48.46% of the total variance. Internal consistency coefficients which were obtained for each of the dimensions of the scale were found in the range of 0.86 to 0.89 indicated the reliability of the scale. As a conclusion, it can be said that F�Y scale is a valid and reliable based on the results which were obtained with regard to the related literature and statistical analyzes.
