The purpose of the present study is to adapt Repression-Sensitization scale to Turkey, and to start investigating reliability and validity of the scale in our society. Sample included 236 female and 170 male subjects who represent various age and socio-economics levels. No significant gender and age dillerences were observed between repression and sensitization scores of the various groups. It has been found that sensitivity level rises as the education and income level fall. It has also been found that R-S scores of those who always live in metropolitan area are lower. For reliability, Cronbachs alpha, retest reliability and split half reliability coefficiants were computed and results are similar to those of Bryne' s. Item analysis indicates that reliability increases if 33 items are deleted.
