Abstract

Objective: The objective of the current study was to assess the psychometric characteristics of Perceived Stress Scale 10 (PSS-10) in cardiovascular patients.

Methodology: A cross-sectional study was performed in cardiovascular patients using the PSS-10. Sociodemographic and patients reported clinical data were collected. Descriptive and inferential statistics were applied using the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) version 24.0. A p-value < 0.05 was considered statistically significant.

Results: There were more male patients (n=212) than the female patients (n=150) in total of 362 studied patients. No major problems regarding internal consistency, factorial validity, convergent validity and floor and ceiling effect were observed.

Conclusion: The present study confirmed the psychometric characteristics of PSS-10 in cardiovascular patients.
