Özet

This study aimed to validate the English version of Sahin’s (2019) State Test Anxiety Scale (STAS) which was originally developed in Turkish based on the latest bio-psychosocial model of test anxiety. For this purpose, the Turkish version of STAS was translated into English and administered to 360 (123 females, 237 males) students from 22 countries. The data were subjected to the confirmatory factor analysis to confirm the three-factor structure as in the Turkish version. Most of the fit indices examined (χ2/df=1.94, CFI=.98, NFI=.96, NNFI=.98, IFI=.98, RMSEA=.05, SRMR=.05) indicated that the data of the STAS had a good fit to the three-factor structure as its Turkish version. The Alpha internal consistency coefficients were found to be .81, .77, .91, and .92, for Physiological effects, Psychosocial effects, Cognitive effects subscales, and the total scale respectively. Stratified Alpha was also calculated and was found to be .93. All in all, evidence collected in this study indicated that the English version of STAS was a valid and reliable scale as its Turkish version.

Abstract

This study aimed to validate the English version of Sahin’s (2019) State Test Anxiety Scale (STAS) which was originally developed in Turkish based on the latest bio-psychosocial model of test anxiety. For this purpose, the Turkish version of STAS was translated into English and administered to 360 (123 females, 237 males) students from 22 countries. The data were subjected to the confirmatory factor analysis to confirm the three-factor structure as in the Turkish version. Most of the fit indices examined (χ2/df=1.94, CFI=.98, NFI=.96, NNFI=.98, IFI=.98, RMSEA=.05, SRMR=.05) indicated that the data of the STAS had a good fit to the three-factor structure as its Turkish version. The Alpha internal consistency coefficients were found to be .81, .77, .91, and .92, for Physiological effects, Psychosocial effects, Cognitive effects subscales, and the total scale respectively. Stratified Alpha was also calculated and was found to be .93. All in all, evidence collected in this study indicated that the English version of STAS was a valid and reliable scale as its Turkish version.
