FAS-d
Deutsche Version der Future Anxiety Scale
Short abstract
The German adaptation of the Future Anxiety Scale (FAS-d) measures future anxiety as a temporally stable trait. It contains 25 items (and four buffer items), each of which must be answered on a seven-point rating scale. Reliability: Cronbach's internal consistency and stability after approximately 30 days are α = .93 and rtt = .88, respectively. Validity: The analysis of convergent and discriminant correlations with anxiety and depression measures, respectively, as well as with Big Five variables yielded hypothesis-compliant results.
