This study aimed to determine the psychometric properties of the Turkish surgical anxiety questionnaire (SAQ) version.
This study design was methodological.
The study was evaluated with construct validity, exploratory (EFA) and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA), and convergent and discriminant validity. For scale reliability, internal consistency, Cronbach Alpha Coefficient, Pearson Correlation Analysis, and Inter-item Correlation Analysis, test-retest, and parallel forms methods were used.
The Turkish version of the surgical anxiety questionnaire consisted of a 3-factor structure, and the Cronbach's alpha value was 0.93. The CFA factor loads varied between 0.48-0.98. A positive, high correlation was found between SAQ and the Amsterdam Preoperative Anxiety and Knowledge Scale (APASIS). A positive, moderate correlation between SAQ and State-Trait Anxiety Inventory-1(STAI-1) was found.
SAQ has strong validity and reliability in the Turkish society. Nurses could use the SAQ to determine the anxiety level in surgical patients.
本研究旨在确定土耳其手术焦虑问卷（SAQ）版本的心理测量特性。
本研究设计为方法学研究。
本研究通过构建有效性、探索性（EFA）和验证性因子分析（CFA）以及收敛和判别有效性进行评估。为了评估量表的可靠性，采用了内部一致性、克朗巴赫阿尔法系数、皮尔逊相关分析和项目间相关分析、重测和并行形式的方法。
手术焦虑问卷的土耳其版本由 3 个因素结构组成，克朗巴赫的 alpha 值为 0.93。CFA 因子负荷在 0.48-0.98 之间。SAQ 与阿姆斯特丹术前焦虑和知识量表（APASIS）之间存在正相关、高相关性。SAQ 与状态-特质焦虑量表-1（STAI-1）之间存在正相关、中等相关性。
SAQ 在土耳其社会具有较强的有效性和可靠性。护士可以使用 SAQ 来确定手术患者的焦虑水平。
