The aim of this study was to adapt the short version of the Future Anxiety (FA) Scale (FAS) into Turkish and to assess its validity and reliability.
This study comprised 3 stages. The first stage of the study assessed the scale's linguistic validity. The second stage assessed the scale's factor structure, criterion validity, and reliability. The third stage assessed the scale's structural validity, and cross-checked its validity and reliability. In addition, a test-retest was conducted with a 2-week interval to assess the reliability of the scale.
The FAS adapted into Turkish has a 5-item and 1-factor structure, consistent with the short version of the FAS. The Turkish version of the FAS was found to be a valid and reliable measurement tool.
The 5-item version of the FAS was translated and adapted into Turkish. The Turkish version of the FAS will be useful for Turkish researchers who want to conduct quantitative research on FA.
本研究旨在将简短版未来焦虑（FA）量表（FAS）改编为土耳其语版本，并评估其效度和信度。
本研究包括三个阶段。研究的第一阶段评估量表的语言效度。第二阶段评估量表的因子结构、效标效度和信度。第三阶段评估量表的结构效度，并对其效度和信度进行交叉检验。此外，间隔两周进行重测以评估量表的信度。
改编为土耳其语的FAS具有5个条目和1个因子结构，与简短版FAS一致。FAS的土耳其语版本被发现是一种有效且可靠的测量工具。
FAS的5个条目版本已被翻译并改编为土耳其语。FAS的土耳其语版本将对希望对未来焦虑进行定量研究的土耳其研究人员有用。
