Abstract Aim This study examines the validity and reliability of a Turkish version of the State–Trait Anxiety Inventory Short Version. Methods The sample consisted of 306 people between the ages of 18–59 who agreed to participate in the study and met the inclusion criteria. Data were collected with the demographic questionnaire, State–Trait Anxiety Inventory Short Version, State–Trait Anxiety Inventory and Brief Fear of Negative Evaluation Scale. Results All factor loadings of the State Anxiety Inventory Short Version were between 0.706 and 0.835, and those of the Trait Anxiety Inventory Short Version were between 0.694 and 0.810. The Cronbach alpha coefficients of the State and Trait Anxiety Inventory Short Version were calculated as 0.838 and 0.837, respectively. There was a significant difference between the first‐test and retest values of the State Anxiety Inventory Short Version ( p = 0.033) and no difference in the Trait Anxiety Inventory Short Version ( p = 0.145). Conclusions The Turkish‐adapted State–Trait Anxiety Inventory Short Version is a valid and reliable measurement tool to determine the anxiety levels of individuals aged 18–59.Keywords:

The State-Trait Anxiety Inventory was administered to 17 female karateka immediately prior to Shotokan karate practice. As no difference between mean Trait and State Anxiety scores was found, it was suggested that this may be seen as a reflection of the changing times.

This study involved 40 college subjects and investigated the effects of EMG training on high and low state- and trait-anxiety scores. At pretreatment assessment subjects were administered the Spielberger State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (1970). Subjects were treated with EMG training with an established treatment criterion of 3 microvolts. All subjects achieved the treatment criterion within six 20-min. training sessions. Daily homework practice sessions were recorded on behavioral data cards. Two-way analysis of variance indicated significant mean differences on both state and trait anxiety at the conclusion of treatment. Interactions were significant, with EMG affecting subjects high in anxiety differently from subjects low in anxiety. Multiple t tests indicated high state-anxiety scores dropped significantly more than high trait-anxiety scores. A 6-mo. follow-up assessment, employing biweekly mailing of behavioral data cards along with a protective contingency instituted by informing subjects they would be contacted by phone if the data cards were not received, showed that state-anxiety scores remained significantly lower, while trait-anxiety scores returned to pretreatment levels.

The aim of this study was to evaluate state and trait anxiety levels of students with no prior skiing experience before and after undertaking a skiing course.The study was conducted with 56 students (25 female, 31 male) with a mean age of 21.64±2.05.The 40-item State and Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) was administered to participating students. The collected data was analyzed using the SPSS 16.0 package program. In this study, no significant difference was identified between the pre- and post-test state and trait anxiety levels of the students with respect to their departments and gender (p>0.05).In conclusion, it was observed that the pre- and post-test state and trait anxiety levels were not affected by such factors as department and gender.

Drawing on the general aggression model and theories of victimization and temperamental goodness-of-fit, we investigated trait anger and trait anxiety as antecedents of petty tyranny: employing a multilevel design with data from 84 sea captains and 177 crew members.Leader trait anger predicted subordinate-reported petty tyranny.Subordinate trait anxiety was associated with subordinate-reported petty tyranny.The association between leader trait anger and subordinate-reported petty tyranny was strongest among low trait anger subordinates supporting the theory of temperamental goodness-of-fit-or rather misfit-in dyads.Hence, leader anger-generated petty tyranny seems to constitute itself both as an average leadership style and as behavior targeting specific subordinates, in this case low trait anger subordinates.In addition, anxious subordinates report more exposure to such abusive leadership behaviors irrespective of levels of trait anger in the captain.The practical implications are above all the needs for organizational and individual management of leader trait anger.

The State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) test is a self survey method used to study a patient's anxiety status. In this study, we investigated the role of dizzy patients' anxiety psychology by analyzing the STAI. Subjects were 377 patients (141 male and 236 female) who complained of dizziness and visited the Department of Otorhinolaryngology at Kansai Medical University from August 2002 to July 2003.1, In the dizzy patients, State Anxiety (A-State) and Trait Anxiety (A-Trait) score showed significantly higher than in the controls. STAI score in female patients was significantly higher than that in male patients.2, In the same patients, A-State scores were decreased after patients showed improvement in their symptoms, however A-Trait score were not changed.3, The patients whose A-State and A-Trait scores in the first medical examination were very high(V) showed high A-State score even after absence of vertigo and dizziness.Based on these results, we concluded that STAI test was simple to use and might provide some helpful information for therapy of anxiety in dizzy patients.

Abstract In this article distinctions are made among some of the different conceptualizations of, and formulas for, Cronbach's coefficient alpha as it is applied to dichotomous or nondi‐chotomous, standardized or unstandardized, and weighted or unweighted data. Issues regarding the statistical significance of alpha and the occasionally encountered anomalies of artificially high alpha and negative values of alpha are given particular attention.

60 female college students were selected on the basis of extreme scores on the Dogmatism Scale and the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory Trait Anxiety (A-Trait) Scale to work on a computer-assisted learning task of difficult mathematical problems. Contrary to expectations, high and low dogmatic subjects, when controlled for A-Trait, did not differ in the level of state anxiety (A-State) displayed during the learning task. As hypothesized, high A-Trait subjects had significantly higher levels of A-State during the experiment than low A-Trait subjects. Neither A-Trait nor dogmatism was related to errors on the task. However, a significant interactive effect of mathematical ability and A-State on performance was observed. Consistent with drive theory, high A-State resulted in more errors for subjects of low mathematical ability but had no effect on the performance of subjects of high mathematical ability.
