The COVID Stress Scales (CSS) were designed to assess stress related to the COVID-19 pandemic. Emerging evidence indicates that people with anxiety disorders (ADs) and obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) may be more negatively impacted by COVID-19 than those with mood disorders or healthy individuals. Accordingly, this study sought to validate the Persian CSS (Persian-CSS) and to compare COVID-19-related stress reactions among patients with specific ADs and OCD. Patients with OCD ( = 300) and ADs ( = 310) completed the Persian-CSS and other scales developed to assess anxiety-related traits and COVID-19-related distress. The Persian-CSS replicated a five-factor structure similar to the original CSS in OCD and ADs. The total CSS and its scales had good reliability and validity. Patients with generalized anxiety disorder, panic disorder, and OCD had higher COVID-19 stress reactions than patients with social anxiety disorder and specific phobia. Patients with panic disorder had higher danger and contamination fears and xenophobia than patients with OCD. The study suggests that the Persian-CSS is a valid scale to be used in patients with OCD and ADs, each of whom differs in their specific patterns of COVID-19-related stress reactions.
新冠应激量表（CSS）旨在评估与新冠疫情相关的应激。新出现的证据表明，焦虑症（ADs）和强迫症（OCD）患者可能比情绪障碍患者或健康个体受到新冠疫情的负面影响更大。因此，本研究旨在验证波斯语版CSS（Persian-CSS），并比较特定焦虑症和强迫症患者中与新冠疫情相关的应激反应。300名强迫症患者和310名焦虑症患者完成了波斯语版CSS以及其他用于评估焦虑相关特质和与新冠疫情相关困扰的量表。波斯语版CSS在强迫症和焦虑症患者中复制了与原始CSS相似的五因素结构。CSS总量表及其分量表具有良好的信度和效度。广泛性焦虑症、惊恐障碍和强迫症患者的新冠疫情应激反应高于社交焦虑症和特定恐惧症患者。惊恐障碍患者比强迫症患者有更高的危险和污染恐惧以及仇外心理。该研究表明，波斯语版CSS是一种有效的量表，可用于强迫症和焦虑症患者，他们各自在与新冠疫情相关的应激反应特定模式上存在差异。
