The cultural adaptation followed Beaton\u2019s method, including forward translation, synthesis, back-translation, expert committee review and cognitive debriefing. Construct validity was assessed using Rasch analysis. Internal consistency was examined with Cronbach\u2019s alpha, and test\u2013retest reliability was evaluated in a subsample using intraclass correlation coefficients (ICCs). Concurrent validity was examined by correlating PWSS dimension scores with the Work Limitation Questionnaire\u2013Short Form (WLQ-SF), Rheumatoid Arthritis Work Instability Scale (RA-WIS) and Work Productivity and Activity Impairment Questionnaire: General Health (WPAI: GH).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Rasch analysis supported the structural validity of the Turkish PWSS, showing adequate model fit after addressing local item dependencies. Cronbach\u2019s alpha ranged from 0.59 (manager) to 0.81 (coworker). Test\u2013retest reliability indicated fair stability, with ICCs of 0.47 (manager), 0.52 (coworker) and 0.59 (organization). These findings suggest that the scale is more appropriate for group-level comparisons rather than individual-level assessment. The scores for PWSS subdimensions showed moderate correlations with work and health measures, supporting concurrent validity.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The Turkish version of the PWSS demonstrates potential utility for assessing perceived workplace support in individuals with IA.
