The purpose of the study was to investigate the reliability and validity of the Turkish version of the Sitting Balance Scale (SBS-T).
SBS-T was tested with 60 individuals with stroke. Test-retest reliability was calculated with the Intraclass Correlation Coefficient (ICC). The Trunk Impairment Scale (TIS), Function in Sitting Test (FIST), The Berg Balance Scale (BBS), and Barthel Index (BI) were used to test the validity of SBS-T. The internal consistency of the SBS-T items was calculated with the Cronbach Alpha Analysis. Factor analysis and hypothesis testing were used for construct validity. Ceiling and floor effects were calculated for reliability.
The intra-observer ICC was found to be 0.970 and the inter-observer ICC value was 0.999. The Cronbach's Alpha Coefficient was detected to be 0.955. A high correlation was detected between SBS-T and TIS, BBS, FIST, and BI (r = 0.861, p = 0.001; r = 0.849, p = 0.001; r = 0.906, p = 0.001; r = 0.848, p = 0.001, respectively).
As a result of the factor analysis, it was found that the scale was determined by one single factor. No ceiling and floor effects were detected. The Turkish version of the SBS is a valid and reliable scale for predicting mobility and functionality in stroke for use in clinical and scientific studies.

本研究旨在探讨坐平衡量表（SBS-T）土耳其语版本的信度和效度。
对 60 例脑卒中患者进行 SBS-T 测试。采用组内相关系数（ICC）计算重测信度。采用躯干损伤量表（TIS）、坐立功能测试（FIST）、伯格平衡量表（BBS）和巴氏指数（BI）来测试 SBS-T 的效度。采用 Cronbach α 分析计算 SBS-T 项目的内部一致性。采用因子分析和假设检验进行结构效度检验。计算可靠性的天花板和地板效应。
观察者内 ICC 为 0.970，观察者间 ICC 值为 0.999。Cronbach's Alpha 系数为 0.955。SBS-T 与 TIS、BBS、FIST 和 BI 之间存在高度相关性（r=0.861，p=0.001；r=0.849，p=0.001；r=0.906，p=0.001；r=0.848，p=0.001）。
通过因子分析发现，该量表由单一因素决定。未发现天花板和地板效应。SBS-T 的土耳其语版本是一种有效且可靠的量表，可用于预测脑卒中患者的移动能力和功能，可用于临床和科学研究。
