本研究调查了日本儿童和青少年的焦虑症状。9-15岁的学生2275名完成了Spence儿童焦虑量表（SCAS）。SCAS的内部一致性和重测信度令人满意。日本和其他国家的总体焦虑症状和每个子量表的得分相似。与之前的研究一样，女孩比男孩报告更多的焦虑症状，青少年比年幼的儿童表现出更少的焦虑症状。日本学生最常认可的项目与西方学生认可的项目不同，尽管较低频率的症状几乎相同。使用多组分析的因素分析支持儿童和青少年焦虑的共同模型。讨论了临床应用和研究意义。(C) 2008 Elsevier Ltd版权所有
This study investigated anxiety symptoms in Japanese children and adolescents. Students 9-15 years old (N = 2275) completed the Spence Children's Anxiety Scale (SCAS). The internal consistency and test-retest reliability of the SCAS were satisfactory. Scores for overall anxiety symptoms and each subscale were similar between Japan and other countries. Girls reported more anxiety symptoms than boys, and adolescents presented with fewer anxiety symptoms than younger children, as in previous studies. The items most frequently endorsed by Japanese students were different from those endorsed by Western students, although lower frequency symptoms were almost the same. Factor analyses using multi-group analysis supported a common model of anxiety for children and adolescents. Clinical applicability and research implications are discussed. (C) 2008 Elsevier Ltd.
