Results: The Cronbach α reliability coefficient of the whole questionnaire is 76. There was no difference between the test retest measurement (p>0.05). The confirmatory factor analysis showed that the questionnaire was conformed with the model in the original questionnaire, that it validated the pattern with 22 items and four factors (X2/SD= 436.76/203, root mean square error of approximation=0.070, standard-ized root mean squared residual=0.078, confirmatory fit index=0.91, non-normed fit index=0.81, goodness-of-fit index=0.87, adjusted goodness of fit index=0.82). Conclusion: It has been determined that the CEQ questionnaire is similar to the original questionnaire and is a valid and reliable measurement tool for assessing the birth experience of women in delivery rooms in our country.
