Summary

The Pregnancy-Specific Anxiety Tool (PSAT) is a newly developed instrument designed to assess anxiety specific to pregnancy across multiple domains. This methodological, cross-sectional study aims to adapt the PSAT into Turkish and to evaluate its psychometric properties among pregnant women in Turkey. The study evaluates the reliability and validity of the Turkish version (PSAT-TR) through internal consistency, factor analysis, and criterion validity analyses using the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory-State (STAI-State) and the Pregnancy-Related Anxiety Questionnaire-Revised 2 (PRAQ-R2). Data were collected from pregnant women attending antenatal care at Gaziosmanpasa Training and Research Hospital. The study hypothesizes that the Turkish version of PSAT is a valid and reliable instrument to assess pregnancy-related anxiety in the Turkish population.
