Shame is a significant factor for psychological problems in adolescents. The present study aims to assess the Persian version of the Adolescent Shame-Proneness Scale (ASPS) among Iranian adolescents. Participants of this correlation study were 2291 high school students aged 12-18 (1296 girls and 1036 boys), selected through a multistage random cluster sampling method. The results indicated that the ASPS has adequate validity and reliability. Assessment of model fit using confirmatory factor analysis revealed satisfactory goodness of fit indices. Similar to the original version of ASPS, a three correlated factor model was confirmed in the present sample, and girls scored higher on all three subscales of ASPS. This scale can be a reliable and flexible instrument for measuring the significant emotion of shame in Iranian adolescents in research and clinical settings and can help expand the shame literature.
