The purpose of this research was to investigate the factor structure, reliability and validity of the academic skills questionnaire. The statistical population of the research was all 9th grade students of Shahrekord city, among whom 320 were randomly selected. The tools used were the questionnaire of academic skills, academic enthusiasm and academic procrastination. The GPA of the students was also considered as an indicator of their academic performance. Data were analyzed using factor analysis and correlation tests. The results of confirmatory factor analysis showed that the hypothesized model is consistent with the data, and the academic skills questionnaire has six separate factors, which are reading and studying skills, note-taking skills, summarizing skills, concentration skills, planning skills, and exam-taking skills. Through Cronbach's alpha, internal consistency was between 0.50-0.66 for six subscales and 0.83 for the total score of the test. In order to check the validity of the convergent construct, the academic enthusiasm test and students' GPA were used. The correlation coefficient between academic skills test and academic enthusiasm was 0.55 and academic performance was 0.31, which were significant at the level of less than 0.001. In order to check the validity of the divergent construct, the academic procrastination test was used, and the results showed that the correlation between the two tests was -0.56 and it is significant at the level of less than 0.001. According to the results of this research, it can be said that the academic skills scale is a valid and suitable tool for measuring the academic skills of students.
