This study aimed to perform a validity and reliability study of the Turkish version of the Aging Anxiety Scale for Middle-Aged Women.
This methodological study was conducted with 262 women aged between 40 and 59 years.
While language, content and construct validity analyses were performed at the validity phase of the scale, internal consistency and stability over time analyses were performed at the reliability stage. Factor analyses were performed for the construct validity, and it was determined that the items of the scale were classified under four factors; this was consistent with the original form. The Cronbach's α reliability was 0.962 for the overall scale and ranged between 0.836 and 0.949 for the four subdimensions.
The study determined that the Turkish adaptation of the scale is a valid and reliable measuring instrument.
本研究旨在对中年女性衰老焦虑量表的土耳其语版本进行有效性和可靠性研究。
这是一项与 262 名年龄在 40 至 59 岁之间的女性进行的方法学研究。
在量表的有效性阶段进行了语言、内容和结构有效性分析，在可靠性阶段进行了内部一致性和随时间的稳定性分析。对结构有效性进行了因子分析，结果表明量表的项目分为四个因素；这与原始形式一致。总量表的克朗巴赫α信度为 0.962，四个分量表的范围在 0.836 至 0.949 之间。
该研究表明，该量表的土耳其语译本是一种有效且可靠的测量工具。
