    (Frontiers Media Sa, 2022) Lee, Taeyeop; Ahmed, Oli; Akca, Omer Faruk; Chung, Seockhoon
    ObjectivesOwing to the COVID-19 pandemic, high school students have experienced a sudden change of school environment, which may result in difficulties related to mental health. The aim of this study is to estimate the reliability and validity of the Stress and Anxiety to Viral Epidemics-6 Items (SAVE-6) scale among high school students. MethodsA cross-sectional online survey was conducted among 300 high school students. The following scales were administered: the SAVE-6, Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7 Items (GAD-7), and Patient Health Questionnaire-9 Items (PHQ-9). Exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) were conducted, and the psychometric properties of the SAVE-6 were assessed. ResultsThe results of the CFA indicated good model fit for the SAVE-6 scale among high school students (chi 2/df = 0.485, CFI = 1.000, TLI = 1.010, RMSEA < 0.001, and SRMR = 0.029). In addition, the SAVE-6 scale demonstrated good reliability (Cronbach's alpha = 0.844, McDonald's Omega = 0.848, and split-half reliability = 0.883). The appropriate cut-off score for the SAVE-6 scale was estimated as >= 15, which corresponds to a mild level of anxiety as assessed by the GAD-7 (>= 5). ConclusionThe SAVE-6 scale was found to be reliable and valid, and can be used as a tool to assess the stress and anxiety of high school students during the COVID-19 pandemic.

    The validity and reliability of the Stress and Anxiety to Viral Epidemics-9 items Scale in Turkish health care professionals
    (Wiley, 2022) Uzun, Necati; Akca, Omer Faruk; Bilgic, Ayhan; Chung, Seockhoon
    There is a need for a valid and reliable measurement tool that will detect the psychological symptoms of health care workers in the epidemic and pandemic periods that have been effective worldwide in recent years. This study has aimed to investigate the validity and reliability of the Stress and Anxiety to Viral Epidemics-9 items Scale (SAVE-9) in Turkish health care professionals. The study was carried out with 150 health care professionals. All participants were asked to complete the SAVE-9, Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9), Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7 (GAD-7), Brief Resilience Scale (BRS). The Cronbach's alpha coefficient was calculated. Also, exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses were used to evaluate the factor structure. The SAVE-9 scores positively correlated with the PHQ-9, GAD-7, and negatively correlated with the BRS. The exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses supported two-factor structure similar to the original scale. The first factor consists of five items (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 8), and the second factor consists of three items (6, 7, 9). The Cronbach's alpha coefficient was found as 0.77. The Turkish version of SAVE-9 is a valid and reliable tool for Turkish health care professionals.
