Purpose: To conduct Turkish validity and reliability study of the MISSCARE Survey-Pediatric version identifying the missed nursing care in pediatric units and its reasons. Design and methods: The sample of this methodological study consisted of 222 nurses working in pediatric units. The study was conducted in three training and research hospitals and one university hospital. In the Turkish adaptation of the survey, confirmatory and explanatory factor analyses were performed within the context of language validity, content validity, and construct validity. In the reliability analyses of the survey, Cronbach's alpha for internal consistency analysis and intraclass correlation analysis for test re-test were used. Results: The language validity of the survey was conducted by expert linguists. Content validity index was calculated as 0.88 for section A and 0.90 for section B. Turkish version consisting of three factors and 16 items for section B of the survey met the construct validity. In reliability analyses it was determined that Cronbach's alpha values were between 0.82 and 0.88 in subscales of the survey and Intraclass Correlation Coefficient values were between 0.52 and 0.65 in subscales of the survey and 0.64 in overall survey. Conclusion: In the Turkish version of MISSCARE Survey-Pediatric version, the section A with 29 items and the section B with 16 items were valid and reliable. Practice implications: The survey is a valid and reliable tool for intercultural studies revealing the nursing care activities missed by nurses working in pediatric clinics and the reasons for such activities.
