  • STAI Anxiety Scale I

    Developed by Spielberger in 1970, its Turkish version was developed by Öner N et al. The validity and reliability study was carried out by adapting it. It is a likert type scale that measures state anxiety levels with 20 questions. Anxiety level is scored as "(1) not at all, (2) a little, (3) a lot, and (4) completely" in STAI-I. Direct statements on the scale, negative emotions; reversed expressions express positive emotions. Two separate total score weights are calculated for each of the direct and reversed statements. The total score for the reverse statements is subtracted from the total score for the direct statements. A predetermined and unchanging value is added to this number. A constant value of 50 was added to the number obtained for STAI-I. The most recent value indicates the individual's anxiety score. The scores obtained from the scale range from 20 to 80. A high score indicates a high level of anxiety.
