摘要
背景:本研究的目的是分析阿根廷人群样本中冠状病毒焦虑量表的心理测量特性,以测量与COVID-19相关的焦虑症状。方法:采用非随机抽样方法,在阿根廷共和国不同省份抽取1098名受试者。平均年龄36.68岁(SD = 14.34, Min = 18, Max = 83),女性78.1%,男性21.9%。设计了一项非实验、横断面、仪器研究。所使用的认识论基础是古典心理测量学。结果:心理测量分析表明,量表具有一维结构,信度和效度良好(Ω = 0.93)。这些项目符合其辨别的期望值,这表明该工具可以区分是否存在与Sars-Cov-2相关的焦虑症状的人。症状识别的分界点≥10。冠状病毒感染的焦虑症状患病率为22.4%。结论:可以得出结论,该量表具有在冠状病毒大流行背景下在阿根廷人口中使用的适当格式,其基本心理测量分析表明其措施总体表现良好,可以确定是否存在焦虑症状。
Psychometric Analysis of the Coronavirus Anxiety Scale in Argentinean Population
Background: The purpose of this research was to analyze the psychometric properties of the Coronavirus Anxiety Scale to measure anxiety symptoms associated with COVID-19 in a sample of the Argentine population. Method: A non-randomized sample of 1098 subjects residing in different provinces of the Argentine Republic was used. The average age was 36.68 (SD = 14.34, Min = 18, Max = 83), 78.1% were women and 21.9% were men. A non-experimental, cross-sectional, instrumental study was designed. The epistemological basis used was classical psychometry. Results: Psychometric analyses reported that the scale has a one-dimensional structure with adequate reliability and validity (Ω = .93). The items met expected values for their discrimination, which showed that the instrument can distinguish between people with presence or absence of anxiety symptoms associated with Sars-Cov-2. The cut-off point for symptomatic identification was ≥ 10. The prevalence of anxiety symptoms by coronavirus was 22.4%. Conclusions: It can be concluded that this scale has an adequate format for its use in the Argentinean population in the context of coronavirus pandemic and its basic psychometric analysis indicated a good general performance of its measures, which allows identifying the presence or absence of anxiety symptoms.
