| State-Trait Anxiety Inventory-STAI | Spielberger et al., (1970) developed the State and Trait Anxiety Inventory, consisting of two subscales, each with 20 items. Öner and Le Compte (1985) adapted the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory into Turkish and conducted its validity and reliability. The State Anxiety subscale (STAI-S) determines how the individual feels at a specific moment and under certain conditions, and the Trait Anxiety subscale (STAI-T) determines how the individual usually feels. The total score for both subscales ranges between 20-80 points; high scores indicate a high level of anxiety. During the score calculation of the State Anxiety Inventory, items 1, 2, 5, 8, 10, 11, 15, 16, 19, and 20 are reversed expressions. During the score calculation of the Trait Anxiety Inventory, items 21, 26, 27, 30, 33, 36, and 39 are reversed expressions |
