Purpose: This study aimed to adapt the Aging Anxiety Scale for Middle-Aged Women to the Turkish culture and to evaluate its validity and reliability.
Methods: This cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted with 248 women. Exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses were performed for language validity, content validity and psychometric measurements of the study. For reliability, the test-retest method was performed.
Results: In exploratory factor analysis, it was determined that the total variance was described as 59.15%. The confirmatory factor analysis, the fit indices of the scale were found acceptable. Cronbach’s alpha coefficient of the scale was 0.89.
Conclusions: The study determined that the Turkish version of the Aging Anxiety Scale for Middle-Aged Women is a valid and reliable measuring instrument.
