“…Acceptable goodness-of-fit indices were found for the 13-item CASI Serbian version with four factors, which was also demonstrated for the German version (Adornetto et al 2008), while for the CASI-18, the four-factor model could not be confirmed in this sample. Considering that this is a comparative study of four different questionnaires, we tested only the most superior model with four factors, without exploring other possibilities of two-and three-factor models (van Widenfelt et al 2002;Silverman et al 2003;Adornetto et al 2008).…”

“…Regarding age differences, findings based on population-based adolescent cohorts indicated that while some anxiety symptoms, like separation anxiety symptoms, decrease as adolescents grow older, other anxiety symptoms, such as generalized anxiety symptoms, increase with age (Crocetti, Hale, Fermani, Raaijmakers, & Meeus, 2009;Essau, Anastassiou-Hadjicharalambous, & Munoz, 2013;Essau, Muris, & Ederer, 2002;Nelemans et al, 2014;Su, Wang, Fan, Su, & Gao, 2008). To the best of our knowledge, no studies have analyzed age trends in a wider period including both adolescents and emerging adults.…”

This study was aimed at unraveling associations between Big Five personality traits and anxiety symptoms of panic, generalized anxiety disorder, school phobia, separation anxiety, and social phobia in male and female adolescents and emerging adults from the general population. Participants were 3,758 (54.6% females) adolescents and emerging adults aged between 11 and 26 years. They completed the shortened Big Five questionnaire and the Screen for Child Anxiety Related Emotional Disorders. Results indicated that the associations between Big Five and anxiety symptoms were consistent across gender and age groups. Most of the associations were statistically significant with the strongest links found between extraversion and symptoms of social phobia; conscientiousness and symptoms of school anxiety; and emotional stability and symptoms of panic, separation, generalized, and school anxiety. All these associations were negative, suggesting that higher levels of these personality traits were related to lower levels of anxiety symptoms.

“…The total score is the sum of the points for all 38 items and higher scores indicate that the child is more likely to have an anxiety disorder. The SCARED inventory was amended by Su et al in 2008 (18) to include 41 items (Group 1: Cronbach's alpha 0.92).…”

INTRODUCTION An accurate assessment of peer victimisation (i.e. bullying) is a necessary precondition for research and intervention. Most assessment instruments use the 'list of acts' measurement strategy, which does not account for the actual physical and psychological damage inflicted by bullying. To resolve this limitation, this study developed a peer victimisation scale (PVS) that includes harmful consequences for judgement and measurement of peer victimisation. METHODSThe PVS is a 40-item self-report questionnaire designed to assess the four aspects of peer victimisation: physical, verbal, relational, and interference and control. A total of 1,469 Grade 3-8 students (49.9% male) were recruited to test the psychometric properties of the PVS. Another 420 Grade 3-8 students were examined by a modified PVS supplemented with a semi-structured interview for scale validation and establishment of the cut-off points for severe bullying. Incidence, age and gender distribution of peer victimisation were also analysed. RESULTS CONCLUSIONThe results were consistent with the measurement constructs, demonstrating that the PVS is a reliable and effective instrument for assessing peer victimisation in children. It may enable more reliable longitudinal studies assessing the impact of peer victimisation to be conducted.
