“…One major strength of this study stems from the total sample size and quality of the nationally representative data. Of the many studies that translated and standardized the PSS-10, most studies used university student samples [ 15 ] or very specific samples [ 20 – 22 ].…”

“…Roberti, Harrington and Storch [17] further supported the two-factor structure naming factor 1 perceived helplessness (PHS) and factor 2 perceived self-efficacy (PSES). The 10-item version has proven to be a valuable tool for stress research as it maintains consistent test-retest reliability across various timespans, acceptable Cronbach's alpha, and strong factorial validity in measuring perceived stress across various populations and languages [18][19][20][21][22]; see review: [15]. Although the PSS-10 has been used in specialized populations, in particular minority groups, many psychometric studies on the PSS-10 call for continual testing in more diverse and representative populations [15,18].…”

Background With the increasing diversity of the German population, it is important to test the psychometric validity and reliability of the German version Perceived Stress Scale (PSS-10) specifically between German natives and residents with a migration background. Methods Using nationally representative data (N = 2527), this study conducted an Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA) to determine the most appropriate factor structure, a Multi-Group Confirmatory Factor Analysis (MGCFA) to compare the validity of the two-factor structure and tested the PSS-10 measurement invariance between the German native and migrant sub-samples. Lastly, reliability of the PSS-10 was examined via Cronbach’s alpha, omega and individual item analyses across the two sub-samples. Results The EFA results support a two-factor structure in the migrant sample. The MGCFA showed adequate model fit for both sub-samples and the PSS-10 is strict invariant between German natives and migrants. Cronbach’s alpha and omega for Perceived Helplessness (PHS: factor 1) and Perceived Self-Efficacy (PSES: factor 2) demonstrate good internal consistency in both German and migrant sub-samples. Conclusions The key conclusions are: (1) the German version PSS-10 is suitable for German residents with a migration background. (2) Despite good internal consistency for the total scale, the PSS-10 measures two aspects: (a) perceived helplessness and (b) perceived self-efficacy. Future research would profit from analyzing the two subscales separately, not only using the total score.

“…The psychometric properties of the PSS-10 have been established in different populations. [27][28][29][30] Several past studies have examined the validity of PSS-10 to assess perceived stress among university students. [31][32][33][34][35][36][37] For example, a previous study examined confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) of PSS-10 and they found the 2-factor model is most suitable to assess perceived stress among the Ethiopian university students.…”

“…Therefore, both of these items were used to assess the convergent validity of the PSS. 28 The SHI with dichotomous scoring pattern has been validated in Saudi university students. 39 Statistical Analysis SPSS 16.0 for Windows (SPSS Inc., Chicago, USA) along with add on module-AMOS (Analysis of Moment Structures) was used for the statistical analysis.…”

Background: There is a gradual increase in the prevalence of stress during professional courses. Previous studies reported a high incidence of stress among university students. The psychometric properties of the perceived stress scale-10 (PSS-10) have been established in different populations. The current study aimed to assess psychometric properties of the PSS-10 in Saudi university students. Methods: Healthy university students (n= 192) participated in this cross-sectional study. All the participants were explained about the aim and procedures of the study. Participants were requested to complete the English version of the PSS, the generalized anxiety disorder-7 (GAD-7), the sleep hygiene index (SHI), and demographic details. Results: The range of the PSS-10 total score was 0-35; 1% reported minimum score of 0, but none reported maximum score of 40. Therefore, there was no issue of ceiling or floor effect in the PSS-10 total score. Positive and significant correlations of the PSS total and the PSS Factor-1 (distress perception) with the GAD-7 total score, SHI item-8 and SHI item-13 score support its convergent validity. Negative or no correlation of the PSS Factor-2 score (coping perception) with the GAD-7 total score, SHI item-8 and SHI item-13 scores demonstrate its divergent validity. The internal homogeneity test indicated moderate to strong positive correlations (r=0.-60-0.82) between the PSS Factors and the items loading on them. The internal consistency test showed a good agreement for the PSS Factor-1 and the PSS Factor-2 scores (Cronbach's alpha 0.78 and 0.71, respectively), suggesting an acceptable level of consistency. Factor analysis favored a 2-Factor model of the PSS in the Saudi students. Conclusion: The current study supported the use of the PSS-10 to assess the perceived stress among Saudi university students.

“…Furthermore, we used the version of the PSS with 14 items, which is one of the most frequently used tools that has great validity (50). However, several recent studies have discussed the use of modified versions of the PSS and demonstrated higher consistency and reliability in a 10-item version (51–53). Among the 14 items used in our study, scores on items 1 and 12 were not consistently greater as the migraine frequency increased.…”

Background: Perceived stress has been related to migraine. The relationship between sex, migraine frequency, and severity of perceived stress remains unclear. We investigated perceived stress among migraineurs. Methods: This cross-sectional case-control study involved 577 clinical outpatients at a tertiary hospital in Taiwan. Demographic and clinical data, including migraine characteristics, were collected. Migraineurs were stratified by episode frequency, aura and sex, and analyses were controlled for confounding variables. Multivariable linear regressions were used to inspect whether migraine frequency (1–4, 5–8, 9–14, or ≥15 headache days per month) was associated with perceived stress as assessed by the Perceived Stress Scale (PSS). Results: Perceived stress was significantly higher in high frequency migraineurs (mean ± standard deviation (SD), 23.3 ± 8.7) than in low frequency migraineurs (mean ± SD, 21.9 ± 9.2; P < 0.05). After stratifying the analysis by sex, this result was observed in male subjects, but was insignificant in female subjects. In addition, the relationship between migraine frequency and perceived stress was not prominent in aura-present or -absent subgroups. Conclusions: Higher perceived stress was associated with higher migraine frequency, but not in chronic migraine and female subgroups. Adaptation to migraine and various psychiatric comorbidities may contribute to these associations.
