The 15 items of the Italian edition of the Templer's Death Anxiety Scale (DAS) were subjected to a principal components factor analysis with a sample of 257 subjects. Three factors, selected by the scree test, were rotated using the Direct Oblimin procedure. Cronbach alpha-coefficients are reported for the scale and the factors together with their intercorrelations. The results demonstrate that the DAS is a multidimensional scale. Therefore, its utility is questioned. Suggestions are made for future research.
对意大利版坦普勒死亡焦虑量表（DAS）的15个项目，在257名受试者的样本上进行了主成分因子分析。通过碎石图检验选出三个因子，并使用直接斜交旋转法进行旋转。报告了该量表及其因子的克朗巴哈α系数以及它们的相互关系。结果表明，DAS是一个多维量表。因此，其效用受到质疑。并对未来研究提出了建议。
