Abstract
- Background and Objective The aim of our study was to evaluate the psychometric properties of the ASWS in a Turkish adolescent sample. Methods Two hundred and two Turkish high school students participated in our study. We used exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) for factor structure. McDonald’s ω and Cronbach’s α values were utilized for reliability analyses. We examined convergent validity by calculating correlations between the ASWS and sleep parameters and perceived stress scale scores. Results A 3-factor structure was detected, explaining 66.20% of the total variance with an eigenvalue above 1 in EFA. The 3-factor structure was confirmed with good fit indices in CFA. The scale demonstrated solid internal consistency (α = 0.844, ω = 0.832). We found a significant negative correlation between the ASWS and perceived stress, sleep latency, wakefulness after sleep onset, and ability to sleep after wakefulness at night. Conclusions The Turkish ASWS was found to be a valid and reliable instrument.
