dc.description.abstractPurpose: This study aimed to adapt the Aging Anxiety Scale for Middle-Aged Women to the Turkish culture and to evaluate its validity and reliability. Methods: This methodological study was conducted with 248 women. The scale was performed to language and content validity analysis and exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis for construct validity. For reliability analysis, Cronbach's alpha for internal consistency analysis, intraclass correlation analysis, test re-test, and item-total correlation were used. Results: In exploratory factor analysis, it was determined that the total variance was described as 59.15%. In the confirmatory factor analysis, the fit indices of the scale were found acceptable. Cronbach's alpha coefficient of the scale was 0.89. Conclusions: The study determined that the Turkish version of the Aging Anxiety Scale for Middle-Aged Women is a valid and reliable measuring instrument.
