State-Trait Anxiety Inventory‚ (Form Y/ STAI-Y)
Spielberger (1983) developed the STAI-Y as a revision to his previous instruments that were inadequate in differentiating diagnoses of depression versus anxiety. The resultant scale has been used extensively in experimental and clinical research as the premier measure of state and trait anxiety among adults. The STAI-Y is comprised of two separate 20-item self-report scales that measure both state (S-Anxiety) and trait (T-Anxiety) anxiety‚ which are printed on the front and back sides of the STAI questionnaire. The S-Anxiety scale is referred to as Form Y-1 and the T-Anxiety is referred to as From Y-2. This dissertation only measured trait anxiety using the second form‚ or sub-scale.
