Az Észlelt Stressz Kérdőív járványspecifikus verziójának validálása

Osszefoglalo. Bevezetes: Egyre tobb adat bizonyitja, hogy a COVID-19-jarvany hatassal van a psziches egeszsegre, beleertve a megnovekedett eszlelt stresszt is. Celkituzes: Az Eszlelt Stressz Kerdoiv 10 teteles, jarvanyspecifikus verziojanak (PSS-PAN) megalkotasa, validitasanak es megbizhatosaganak tesztelese. Modszer: A skala faktorstrukturajat, konvergens es divergens validitasat teszteltuk egy internetes vizsgalat soran (n = 1164; atlageletkor: 38,57 ev; szoras: 6,27 ev; 84,2% no). Eredmenyek: Igazoltuk a PSS-PAN egykomponensu szerkezetet. A kerdoiv tovabba szignifikansan korrelalt a roviditett Beck Depresszio Kerdoiv (r = 0,41; n = 1164; p<0,001), a 4 teteles Eszlelt Stressz Kerdoiv (r = 0,46; n = 1164; p<0,001) es az Elettel Valo Elegedettseg Skala pontszamaival (r = -0,29; n = 1164; p<0,001). A nok eseteben a PSS-PAN atlaga szignifikansan magasabb volt, mint a ferfiaknal (t(1162) = -7,135; p<0,001), de ez a hatasnagysag nagyon csekely volt (Cohen-fele d = 0,06). A PSS-PAN atlagpontszama szignifikansan nem kulonbozott a legmagasabb iskolai vegzettseg kategoriai menten (F(6;1157) = 2,035; p = 0,06; I·2 = 0,01). Az also kozeposztalyba tartozo resztvevok atlagpontszama szignifikansan magasabb volt, mint a kozeposztalyba tartozo kitoltoke a post hoc elemzes alapjan (F(4;1159) = 3,461; p = 0,01; I·2 = 0,01). A skala pontszama nem korrelalt szignifikansan az eletkorral (r = -0,04; n = 1164; p = 0,13). A Cronbach-alfa 0,89 volt, vagyis a kerdoiv belso megbizhatosaga kivalo. Megbeszeles: A skala egykomponensu strukturat mutatott. A tobbi skalaval valo kozepesen eros es gyenge korrelacioja a skala validitasat igazolta, es azt, hogy a jarvanyhoz kapcsolodo eszlelt stressz kulon indikatora. Pontszamat nem vagy nem erosen befolyasolta a nem, a kor, az iskolazottsag vagy a szociookonomiai statusz. Kovetkeztetes: A PSS-PAN a jarvanyokhoz kotodo stressz meresenek megfelelo eszkoze.

OBJECTIVE: To develop and psychometrically investigate a pandemic-specific version of the Perceived Stress Scale (PSS-PAN) that measures stress related to the pandemic. METHOD: Factor structure as well as convergent and divergent validity of the 10-item PSS-PAN were examined on the data set of an online survey (n = 1164; mean age: 38.57 years; standard deviation: 6.27 years; 84.2% women). RESULTS: A one-factor structure for the PSS-PAN was confirmed. The scale correlated significantly with scores on the Shortened Beck Depression Inventory (r = 0.41; n = 1164; p<0.001), the 4-item Perceived Stress Scale (r = 0.46; n = 1164; p<0.001), and the Satisfaction with Life Scale (r = -0.29; n = 1164; p<0.001). Women's PSS-PAN scores were significantly higher than men's (t(1162) = -7.135; p<0.001) but this difference was trivial (Cohen's d = 0.06). Further, scale scores did not differ significantly across educational attainment (F(6;1157) = 2.035; p = 0.06; I·2 = 0.01). Lower middle class participants' mean scores were significantly higher than those of middle-class respondents according to the post hoc test (F(4;1159) = 3.461; p = 0.01; I·2 = 0.01). PSS-PAN scores did not correlate significantly with age (r = -0.04; n = 1164; p = 0.13). Cronbach's alpha was 0.89 indicating excellent internal consistency. DISCUSSION: The PSS-PAN has a single-component structure. Moderately strong and weak correlations with other scales support its convergent and divergent validity and indicate that it is a distinct indicator of pandemic-related perceived stress. Its total score was not or not strongly associated with gender, age, education level, or socioeconomic status. CONCLUSION: The PSS-PAN is a proper instrument to measure pandemic-specific perceived stress. Orv Hetil. 2021; 162(35): 1391-1396.
