This study attempted to create a valid and reliable instrument to measure how gifted children perceive the gifted label and others' perceptions of giftedness. We recruited a total of 300 gifted Turkish children (59.3% males; 40.7% females) aged 10-13 years (M = 11.4, SD = 0.99) to this validity and reliability study. For validity concerns, we first pooled the items relying on the relevant theoretical frameworks. Next, we resorted to expert opinions and employed the Lawshe technique to explore the content validity of the scale. Then, we performed confirmatory factor analysis to investigate the construct validity of the scale after checking multivariate normality through the Relative Multivariate Kurtosis value. Finally, we calculated Cronbach's alpha coefficients to reveal the internal consistency of the five-factor model. Content validity ratio values showed that each item on the scale yielded an acceptable level of content validity. In addition, we concluded a significant Content validity index for the scale (0.82). Finally, we calculated Cronbach's alpha coefficients to be higher than 0.70 for the subscales. Overall, the findings suggested that the perception of gifted label scale (PGLS) has an acceptable psychometric quality regarding its validity and reliability. Gifted children's self-reports may provide more valuable data to better understand the labeling phenomenon and help design preventive educational interventions against the negative impacts of labeling. Therefore the PGLS may lead the way of future studies on the effects of the gifted label on gifted children.
