dc.description.abstract | Objective: Anxiety sensitivity (AS) refers to the fear of anxiety-related sensations. The aim of the present study is to investigate the validity and reliability of Childhood Anxiety Sensitivity Index (CAST) and adapting it into Turkish. Method: The study group consisted of 328 healthy individuals whose age between 8-15 years old. All subjects included in the study filled out the Childhood Anxiety Sensitivity Index (CAST) and the State-Trait Anxiety Inventories for Children (STAI-C). Results: The CAST was found to be significantly related to both trait and state anxiety scores (r=0.42 and r=0.32, respectively). It had a high internal consistency (Cronbach a= 0.74) and good test-retest reliability (r= 0.77, p< 0.001). Explorotary factor analyses showed that the CAST is comprised of 6 lower-order factors. However, CAST subfactors was established according to literature as a three factor model: physical, cognitive and social. Conclusion: According to the present study, the CAST Turkish version was shown to be a valid and a reliable scale. | en_US |
