The Teenage Executive Functioning Inventory (TEXI) is a measurement tool that consists of two subscales, working memory and inhibition, and allows both self and parent rating. This study aimed to examine the psychometric properties of the Turkish version of TEXI in a sample of 184 parents and 476 adolescents aged 11 and 18 years and to measure the relationship between executive functions and mental health problems, including attention deficit hyperactivity disorder and major depressive disorder and anxiety disorders. Confirmatory factor analyses showed acceptable/good fit indices and confirmed the two-factor structure for both the adolescent and parent forms. Test-retest results and Cronbach's alpha coefficient showed that the scale had high reliability. The results also showed that deficits in executive functions were associated with various mental health problems in adolescents. The findings demonstrated that a Turkish translation of the TEXI is a valid and reliable tool for evaluating the executive functions of adolescents.
青少年执行功能量表（TEXI）是一种测量工具，由工作记忆和抑制两个分量表组成，支持自我评定和家长评定。本研究旨在检验土耳其语版TEXI在184名家长和476名11至18岁青少年样本中的心理测量特性，并测量执行功能与心理健康问题之间的关系，包括注意力缺陷多动障碍、重度抑郁症和焦虑症。验证性因素分析显示拟合指数可接受/良好，并证实了青少年版和家长版的双因素结构。重测结果和克朗巴赫α系数表明该量表具有高可靠性。结果还表明，执行功能缺陷与青少年的各种心理健康问题相关。研究结果表明，TEXI的土耳其语翻译是评估青少年执行功能的有效且可靠的工具。
