- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Depression, Anxiety and Stress Scale (DASS-21) Third assessment will take place average 4 weeks after the second assessment. The scale consists of 21 items and three sub-dimensions. Each of the seven items that make up each sub-dimension of the scale measures depression, anxiety and stress. The DASS-21 scale is a four-point Likert-type scale and the items are evaluated between 0 and 3 (0 = not at all suitable for me, 1 = somewhat appropriate for me, 2 = usually suitable for me, 3 = completely suitable for me). There is no reverse item in the scale. The total scores of the scale range from 0 to 21 for each sub-dimension. In the validity and reliability study, the Cronbach-alpha coefficient was determined as 0.87 for the depression sub-dimension, 0.85 for the anxiety sub-dimension, and 0.81 for the stress sub-dimension. The Cronbach-alpha coefficient for the Turkish version of the Depression, Anxiety and Stress scale was determined as 0.88 for the depression sub-dimension, 0.80 for the anxiety sub-dimension and 0.87 for the stress sub-dimension (Sarıçam, 2018).
