This study aims to validate the Postpartum-Specific-Anxiety-Scale (PSAS) as a French-language instrument, which assesses maternal and infant-related anxieties during the postpartum period.
The methodology included six stages: preliminary French translation; selection of most articulate items and back-translation; rectification of discrepancies; pilot study (n = 257); reliability and validity studies (n = 258; n = 874); and test-retest reliability study (n = 231).
The PSAS-FR demonstrated good acceptability, high internal consistency of the global scale (Cronbach's α = 0.93), and each of the factors; along with good validity, and test-retest reliability. The receiver operating characteristic analysis suggested a satisfactory screening tool.
The PSAS-FR appears to be a valid and reliable tool to screen for postpartum anxieties in the French-speaking population.
本研究旨在验证产后特定焦虑量表（PSAS）作为一种评估产妇在产后期间与母婴相关焦虑的法语工具的有效性。
该方法包括六个阶段：初步的法语翻译；选择最清晰的项目和回译；纠正差异；预试验（n=257）；信度和效度研究（n=258；n=874）；以及重测信度研究（n=231）。
PSAS-FR 表现出良好的可接受性、全球量表（克朗巴赫 α=0.93）和每个因素的高内部一致性；以及良好的有效性和重测信度。接收器操作特征分析表明这是一种令人满意的筛查工具。
PSAS-FR 似乎是一种在法语人群中筛查产后焦虑的有效且可靠的工具。
