Randomized trial develops a reliable scale for measuring Arabic reading self-efficacy.

The primary aim is to create a valid and reliable scale to measure Arabic reading self-efficacy with high psychometric quality.
Used a survey model with quantitative methods for data collection from two samples in Turkey.
Applied Exploratory Factor Analysis using Unweighted Least Squares due to violation of multivariate normality.
Utilized various dimensionality assessment methods confirming the scale's unidimensional structure.
Achieved a final scale with 27 items, showing factor loadings between 0.64 and 0.93.
Confirmed unidimensionality with both Exploratory and Confirmatory Factor Analysis.
Demonstrated excellent internal consistency with Cronbach's Alpha of 0.975 and McDonald's Omega of 0.981.
