Adolescents’ satisfaction of basic psychological needs differ across various life domains necessitate the development of domain-specific measures of psychological needs satisfaction scale. This study aimed to adopt “Adolescent Students’ Basic Psychological Needs at School Scale (ASBPNSS)” and to assess its psychometric properties. Of the students participated in the study 181(55 %) were female and 149 (45 %) of the male. The average age of the participants 14.77 (SD = .86) and the age range is 13-17. Confirmatory factor analysis was conducted to investigate the construct validity of the ASBPNSS. We also examined criterion-related validity. For the reliability studies internal consistency reliability, test–retest correlations were examined. The results showed that the ASBPNSS has good psychometric properties to asses satisfaction of basic psychological needs at school. The potential contributions of the scale for future research and applications were discussed
