Dangerous games have been disseminated among children and adolescents in different countries, including Brazil. Considering the repercussion of this social phenomenon, the aimed of this study were to construct and to obtain evidence of validity and reliability for Dangerous Games Assessment Scale (EABP). The preliminary version of the EABP was applied to 294 students, aged 09 to 17 years. Exploratory Factor Analysis indicated a one-dimensional solution, obtaining satisfactory psychometric indicators. It was observed that the type of school and the age group of students significantly impacted the total scale score. The results ensured the evidence of validity and reliability to EABP.
