Pages

Abstract

 Introduction: The current research was conducted in order to study the psychometric properties of the Youth Anxiety Measure according to DSM-5. Method: A sample of 400 subjects were selected through multistage cluster sampling among youth in the age range of 8 to 15 years old at Urmia schools. All participants answered to YAM-5, Anxiety Sensitivity of Reiss and Spence Children Anxiety Scale (SCAS). The data were extracted and analyzed by Pearson’ s correlation analysis and exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis using SPSS and LISREL softwares. Results: Appropriate concurrent criterion validity observed based on correlation coefficients of YAM-5 subscales and two other questionnaires. The value of 0. 89 for cronbach̍ s alpha coefficient of total scale and the scope of values from 0. 60 to 0. 90 for coefficients of internal consistency, split-half and test-retest of the subscales indicated optimal internal consistency and reliability for the scale and it̍ s subscales. The results of the exploratory factor analysis showed 10 factors with eigenvalues higher than one that alltogether explained 48. 64 percent of the total variance. Also, the model̍ s general fit indices, applying confirmatory factor analysis, implied to optimal fitness of the model of this questionnaire. Conclusion: This clinical instrument, utilizing valid tests and methods of calculating reliability, was evaluated regarding construct validity and reliability, and results confirmed appropriate construct structure and reliability and content validity. It is possible to take advantages from this mean for assesing and diagnosing the anxiety disorders in the Iranian sample.
