Increased longevity has led to concerns and fears among the population about the inexorable process of ageing. This process causes individuals to become more anxious about the physical and psychosocial changes caused by the passage of time. However, there are currently no scales in the Spanish context that analyse ageing. Therefore, the aim of the present study is to validate the Anxiety about Aging scale to the Spanish context. In the present study, 594 subjects between 25 and 64 years old participated. Both exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses were used. The results revealed that the factor structure of the questionnaire shows adequate psychometric properties, showing a four-factor factor structure.
寿命的延长导致人们对不可避免的衰老过程产生担忧和恐惧。这个过程使个体对随着时间流逝而产生的身体和心理社会变化更加焦虑。然而,目前在西班牙语境下还没有分析衰老的量表。因此,本研究的目的是对西班牙语境下的《衰老焦虑量表》进行验证。在本研究中,有 594 名 25 至 64 岁的受试者参与。同时使用了探索性和验证性因素分析。结果表明,问卷的因子结构具有较好的心理测量学特性,呈现出四因子结构。
