Purpose: This study was conducted to evaluate the Turkish adaptation of the Road to My Surgery Preoperative Checklist.

Design: A methodological, correlational, and comparative study.

Methods: This study was conducted with 125 children between July 2022 and December 2023. Data were collected using an information form and the Road to My Surgery Preoperative Checklist. To evaluate the data, various analyses were performed, including content validity analysis, Kuder-Richardson 20 analysis, intraclass correlation analysis, upper and lower 27% group analysis, and item-total score correlation.

Findings: The Kuder-Richardson 20 reliability coefficient of the Road to My Surgery Preoperative Checklist was 0.715 and the intraclass correlation coefficient was 0.627. The item-total score correlation coefficients of the checklist items were between 0.099 and 0.836. A difference was found between the scale total mean scores of children in the upper 27% group and children in the lower 27% group (P < .005).

Conclusions: The Road to My Surgery Preoperative Checklist is a valid and reliable measurement tool for the Turkish sample.
