Artificial Intelligence (AI) has led to many paradigms shifts in the world of education. One of the variables determining the integration of AI tools into education is teachers' AI-TPACK competencies. This study aimed to adapt the AI-TPACK Scale to Turkish. The study sample consisted of 316 teachers. The AI-TPACK Scale and the AI Attitude Scale were used as data collection tools in the study. According to the results of the reliability analyses conducted on the AI-TPACK Scale, Cronbach's alpha and McDonald's omega values were found to be .88. Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) results proved that the fit indices of the AI-TPACK Scale were at an acceptable level. The scale's item factor loadings, item discrimination indices, and convergent validity findings were at acceptable levels. Significant positive relationships were observed between the AI Attitude and AI-TPACK used for criterion validity. Therefore, all the results of the study confirm that the AI-TPACK Scale is a reliable and valid measurement tool that can be used in studies in Turkish culture.
