Abstract	In this study, it is aimed to adapt the LIST scale that was prepared by Boerner et al. (2005) to define the learning strategies of university students, to Turkish. Validity and reliability analysis were made for Turkish form considering the original form. The study was conducted with 754 college students. Firstly, the linguistic equivalency of the scale was completed then the factor structure was analyzed. The factor structure of the scale was commented considering the exploratory factor analysis and parallel analysis results. Statistically irrelevant items were excluded from the scale. Factor analysis results show that the scale was 12 dimensional and consists of 67 items. According to the analyses, the internal consistency of 12 dimensional structure of the scale was adequate with the factors in the scale. Cronbach Alpha values of the factors ranged between 0.74 and 0.92. Furthermore, in order to ensure the reliability of the scale, comparisons of item averages of between sub and super groups were made. It was seen that the results of the comparisons of 27% sub and super groups were significant factor all the items. These results show that the 12 dimensional structure of the scale is valid and reliable to define the learning strategies of university students. (As Provided).
