Epilepsy is a frequent chronic disease in children with a significant influence on psychosocial functioning of both children and their parents. In order to provide a successful therapy, it is necessary to control for its psychosocial consequences, monitoring it with epilepsy-specific inventories. The Impact of Pediatric Epilepsy Scale (IPES) is a short parental inventory for children between 2 and 18 years old. A Polish version of the inventory was created and its psychometric properties were measured in the group of 36 parents of epileptic children. The reliability of the scale was high (Cronbach's alpha = 0.85). Its validity was confirmed by significant correlations with clinical measures of child's health. All psychometric properties of the Polish adaptation were comparable to those of the original scale. A short Polish inventory was created that measures the impact of childhood epilepsy on psychosocial functioning. It has good psychometric properties and can be recommended for scientific use. .
