Abstract	This study aimed to examine the inversion skills of preschool children. Within the framework of the main objective of this study, the differentiation of children's inversion skills was analyzed according to various variables (age, gender, school type, mother's and father's education level). The study group consisted of a total of 80 children (40 girls, 40 boys) of 53-76-month-old (average 67.5 months), attending a public and a private preschool in Istanbul. 29 of the children were 53-66-month-old and 51 of them were 67-76-month-old. Data were collected by using "Personal Information Form" and "Inversion Skills Scale". The scale developed for this study was found to have 2 sub-scales (inversion with concrete objects and inversion in verbal problems). As a result of further analyzes, the measuring tool was decided to be valid and reliable. According to the results of the study, the gender and age variables did not have any significant difference in children's inversion skills, whereas a significant difference was found in the verbal problems subdimension in favor of children attending private school. In addition, the findings indicated significant differences in overall and verbal problems sub-dimension of children's inversion skills in favor of the children whose mothers have bachelor degree and above. Additionally, a significant difference was found in working with concrete objects and verbal problems sub-dimensions and inversion skills total point, in favor of the children whose fathers have bachelor degree or above.
