Objective: This study was planned to develop the Participation Restriction Questionnaire for children based on the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health: Children and Youth (ICF-CY). Materials and Methods: A total of 242 children; 209 typically developing (mean age:6.82±4.22 years) and 33 with chronic diseases (mean age:74±4.98 years) and their parents were included in the study. The processes followed were literature review, item pooling based on ICF-CY, eliciting and evaluating expert opinion, scoring the scale, collecting data (with google forms), and analyzing the data. Exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis was performed for scale validity, and Cronbach α and Intraclass Correlation Coefficients (ICC) were used for scale reliability. The re-test was applied to 33 volunteer families two weeks after the first test. Results: The final version of the scale was constituted of 23 items (after removing 7 items out of 30 items) and three subscales as body structures and functions, activity and participation, and environmental factors. The model fit was found acceptable (The Root Mean Square Error of Approximation=0.084, Goodness of Fit Index=0.779, Adjusted Goodness of Fit Index=0.732, Chi-Square/degrees of freedom=2.696, p
