Abstract

Objective(s): The “ STRESS SCALE/fa?page=1&sort=1&ftyp=all&fgrp=all&fyrs=all" target="_blank">PERCEIVED STRESS SCALE” (PSS) is one of the most widely used instruments for measuring psychological STRESS in a range of clinical and nonclinical settings. The aim of the present study was to examine the PSYCHOMETRIC PROPERTIES of the all three versions of the PSS (PSS-14, PSS-10, and PSS-4) among ASTHMAtic patients in Iran.Methods: A total of 106 ASTHMAtic patients referring to several clinics in Sanandaj were selected by convenience sampling for this study. The PSS-14 and the short-form version of the “Depression Anxiety and STRESS Scale” (DASS-21) were administrated to all participants. The PSYCHOMETRIC PROPERTIES of the PSS were examined: construct validity using confirmatory factor analysis (CFA), convergent validity by evaluating the relationship with DASS-21 and internal consistency using Cronbach’s alpha.Results: The findings of CFA revealed that a two-factor model for all three versions of PSS, containing both negative and positive factors, fit the data significantly better than a one-factor model. The Cronbach’s alpha coefficients for the PSS-14, PSS-10, and PSS-4 were 0.90, 0.90, and 0.77, respectively. All three versions of the PSS were significantly positively correlated with the DASS-21 and its subscales, indicating an acceptable convergent validity. Moreover, women scored higher than men on the PSS.Conclusion: All three versions of the PSS demonstrated adequate PSYCHOMETRIC PROPERTIES for measuring psychological STRESS among ASTHMAtic patients.
