A German translation of the Kuwait University Anxiety Scale, written originally in Arabic, was prepared. A sample of 207 men and women German college students was recruited. Coefficient alpha was .88, whereas the item-remainder correlations ranged from .21 to .63, denoting good internal consistency. The correlation of the scale with the German form of the Trait Anxiety Scale was .76, indicating high criterion-related validity. Three factors were identified: General, Somatic, and Cognitive/Affective Anxiety. German students scored lower (less anxious) than students from the U.S. and 18 Arab countries. The sex difference was not significant for the German sample.
编制了最初用阿拉伯语编写的科威特大学焦虑量表的德语译本。招募了207名德国男女大学生作为样本。α系数为0.88，而项目与剩余项的相关性在0.21至0.63之间，表明具有良好的内部一致性。该量表与德语版特质焦虑量表的相关性为0.76，表明具有较高的效标关联效度。确定了三个因素：一般性焦虑、躯体性焦虑和认知/情感性焦虑。德国学生的得分低于美国和18个阿拉伯国家的学生（焦虑程度更低）。德国样本的性别差异不显著。
